Discovery is a kids Autism, ADHD, and Aspergers camp designed for children ages 6 and 7 years old who may have ASD, ADHD, learning disabilities, or social anxiety. During Session 4, in just 7 days, campers sample many of our popular on-campus activities.
The Discovery program model emphasizes both consistency and compassion, as campers build foundational skills in social communication and conflict resolution within a developmentally appropriate peer group.This growth takes place in a safe and fun small group environment where campers can become excited about the activities they try, the friends they make, and the potential they begin to recognize in themselves.
