Camp Connect 2025
Camp Connect is a summer day camp designed for children with social skills difficulties caused by HIGH-FUNCTIONING AUTISM SPECTRUM DISORDERS, attention deficit disorders, sensory processing disorders, and related differences. This program is set up with small groups and community activities where campers can learn appropriate social skills and gain the confidence to use them. Camp activities*, such as bowling, swimming, escape room & more, are geared towards personal growth and learning to work as a team. Camp Connect also focuses on problem solving, real-world dynamic thinking, and adaptive skills.
*Details for each days activities & outings will be emailed to you.
We have a limit of 18 children in Camp Connect! These 18 spots are filled after a screening process to determine if your child is an appropriate candidate for Camp Connect. If you are interested, please fill out the application registration form by May 30th at midnight. The director will set up a phone call with the guardian to fill the spots appropriately. After all phone calls/screenings, you will get an acceptance/denial email.
