The 12 Steps to Return to Humanity is an ongoing event program series hosted by The CAMP, Costa Mesa. It was inspired by a desire to activate ourselves to connect with our communities deeper, and take more time away from technology.

Anyone is welcome to participate and visit, just check our Event Calendar for upcoming festivities. Some events are ticketed, but the majority are free!

Attendees are encouraged to pick up a free punch-card to earn prizes when you attend multiple events.

Punch cards are available at The CAMP’s official info table at various events! If you don’t see the table, snap a photo of the event you attended to get your punch at a later time.

Punches on your card can be redeemed for fun prizes such as limited-edition t-shirts, stickers, and dinner-worthy gift cards to your favorite spots at The CAMP! Keep punching in at events to find out how to redeem.

All of them, of course! All events that are part of the series will be labeled on our Calendar.

Whether you prefer to move your body, eat good food, create things hands on, or get retrospective, we have the event for you.

All steps can be attended in any order, at any time, depending on what we have scheduled. For example, if you don’t prefer to join us for community yoga at Step 1, you can still punch your card for Step 2, with music in the courtyard.

Steps will often land out of order due to their reoccurring nature. We like to think that’s the beauty of the recovery program.
