These camps provide a barrier-free outdoor experience that promotes personal growth and fosters independence for campers with disabilities. Disability camps can help campers gain confidence in their abilities and develop latent skills. For example, camps for amputee kids can have a wide range of sports activities like volleyball and basketball, as well as activities like wall climbing and horseback riding. These camps might have field trips or nature activities like hiking too.
Other disabled kids camps
Children with mental disabilities also enjoy summer camp. Camps assisting with children who are mentally disabled need counselors or workers able to handle the associated frustrations and learning challenges due to disabilities. Some camps listed here may likely welcome children with this kind of disability. There are also camps that specialize in children with learning disabilities. When looking for a day camp for a disabled child, it is essential to find out what types of disabilities the camp is designed for.
Contact the camps above to learn exactly how they will help your child have a great summer, winter, or March break!
