Our Dream Oaks Camp provides children with special needs exposure to quality results-based programming that allows them to engage in adaptive activities, learn new life skills and develop productive behaviors. As the child attends our program, staff and parents collaborate to identify 2-targeted goals for the child to progress towards while at camp and throughout the year. By focusing on each child’s strengths and abilities, staff members integrate these goals and facilitate the child’s success through participation in a variety of unique camp activities that include arts and crafts, music and drama, yoga, scavenger hunts, aquatic programs (swimming and canoeing), boat rides, sports and games, nature studies, therapeutic horseback riding, and many other fun camping adventures.
Our Dream Oaks Camp Program celebrates the abilities and develop the strengths of children ages 7-17 with special needs including, but not limited to; ADHD, ADD, Autism, Down syndrome, Cerebral palsy, ODD, Anxiety, PTSD, other health impairments, etc. by collaborating with families to provide individualized result-based goals, family support and recreation in a camp environment. Parents may schedule a time to tour the property.
