About Us
Ujima Retreat Center, a family-owned & operated organization, was founded in 2022 in response to chronic stress, health issues, and social isolation that became more prominent during the COVID-19 crisis. Designed to be a conveniently located getaway, Ujima is truly a "retreat" from the overwhelming stressors of life. Our location is in the outskirts of city living [Urbana-Champaign, IL] and provides a convenient respite, that so many of us need.
​
Ujima Retreat Center sits on 7 acres of land and offers an all-weather sleeping cabin, 2.5 acre spring-fed pond, pavilion, barrel sauna, hot tub, gardens, barn, outhouse, and fire pit.
​
Ujima is about working together and solving each other’s problems collectively. We believe that a retreat experience in nature can be a healing vehicle for families, groups, and individuals.
