MISSION AND PURPOSES   Camp Chosôn is governed and sponsored by the St. Croix Valley Korean-American Cultural Society, a non-profit, 501c-3 corporation, whose Board is composed of all volunteers.  The primary purposes of the corporation are: to administer and sponsor Camp Chosôn; promote parental involvement in the development of their children by providing opportunities for parent education and participation within its operations; and, to promulgate healthy, strong relationships with other philosophically similar institutions.   CAMP CHOSÔN MISSION Camp Chosôn exists for the purpose of offering Korean-American youth opportunities to develop friendships, discover new skills, build respect for others and nature, and gain an appreciation for their cultural heritage. The Objectives of Camp Chosôn are: -  To provide a fun, caring environment which foster lifelong friendships among the participants. -  To encourage parent participation, so that lessons learned at camp can be reinforced in the family. -  To be a place where Korean-American youth and teens feel welcome to explore the identity issues of adoption, race and cultural issues. -  To teach Korean culture. A natural outcome of this camp will be to offer the community a resource which reflects the positive aspects of adoption and cross-cultural education.
