Ocean Challenge of Southern California

Ocean Challenge of Southern California is a “501c(3)” nonprofit, community-based organization that provides prevention programs for “at-risk” youth in a diverse multi-ethnic, multi-racial and multi-cultural environment.

Ocean Challenge continually seeks to further develop and expand all of its programs and services and does not charge individual youth fees for participation. Support for all Ocean Challenge educational activities comes from individuals, clubs, organizations, foundations and corporations. Our dedicated and highly educated group of volunteers have committed their free time in support of the Ocean Challenge program so our “at-risk” youth can acquire an understanding and appreciation for the moral values we hopefully imbed in their minds for the remainder of their lives.

Ocean Challenge has developed a safe and adventurous environment for “at-risk” youth to enjoy ocean life and recreation while providing them with an opportunity to renew their hope and enthusiasm for the good in life that may have been numbed by the complexities and confusions in their daily lives…
