Project U.S.E is a private, non-profit educational corporation who has partnered with Children's Resource Center for 7+ years. Project provides a wide scope of outdoor environmental, educational and wilderness experiences. Project U.S.E serves more than 250 public and private schools, colleges, youth programs, community organizations, state agencies and corporations throughout the U.S. With their corporate office located in Red Bank, New Jersey, they are centrally located in the Mid-Atlantic region. We also operate the Wildcat Mountain Wilderness Center in Passaic County (Hewitt) on a year-round basis and have another base of operations in the Pine Barrens of southern New Jersey.

Another important program area for Project U.S.E. is the Special Projects division. It was formed in response to the rapid growth of adventure education in middle school and high school curriculums as well as summer camps and youth "at-risk" programs. Special Projects is involved with all aspects of development of challenge course and experiential education curriculum from conception through application. Project U.S.E. will introduce you to this philosophy, design and build a challenge course for your program, train your staff to operate the course, provide safety inspections and course maintenance, and continue to develop and expand your curriculum through in-service workshops in future years

Programs can include a variety of activities:

• initiative games
• group problem solving/team building
• low rope/high rope courses
• Rock climbing and rappelling
• canoeing
• sea kayaking
• environmental education
• backpacking
• outdoor living
• caving
• hiking
• orienteering
• cross-country skiing

The courses which are offered are either one-day or multi-day courses. We also offer on-site programs if you cannot travel to our centers, or would prefer us to conduct a course at your facility.

For the past 7 years, partnering with Project U.S.E, Ironwood Outdoor Center has offered parent/child adventure education courses at their Lumberton New Jersey site. These exclusive activities include high/low ropes courses, canoeing the Rancocas waterways and many of the team building/initiative games and environmental education programs which are so popular with schools, corporations and community organizations in the area.
