WHO WE ARE
We believe safety outcomes are enhanced by thoughtful program design
STUART SLAY | DIRECTOR
We work with a range of program types, including outdoor and adventure education, schools and university programs, conservation and service learning, global and adventure travel, recreation-based outfitters and operators, and provincial governments and federal agencies.
Based in Taipei, Taiwan and Seattle, Washington, we support programs that work across local, national, and international contexts.
Slay Risk brings expertise and research-informed solutions to help clients professionalize their practice.

All the great people we work with have three things in common:
They know safety isn’t guaranteed in the outdoors, and they also know that risk-literate organizations and staff are essential in meeting their mission.
They’re passionate about the power that facilitated, outdoor experiences can bring to enhance people’s lives and bring about positive change in the world.
They’re open to new ideas and want to deepen their professional expertise.
