Kamp for Kids brings together children with and without disabilities in a unique integrated model that promotes understanding and growth. This summer’s free virtual Kamp experience includes art, health, nature, and other inclusive, fun activities. Zoom gatherings and some project supplies are available for delivery. As a fully inclusive summer camp, it is Kamp for Kids’ mission to serve a population of both children with disabilities and their typically developing peers.

In honor of Developmental Disabilities Month, we celebrate the passion and dedication of our team members who work tirelessly to support individuals with developmental disabilities. We asked staff in our residential services program what motivates them, what they find most rewarding, and what advice they would give to others interested in joining this fulfilling field. Their answers provide a powerful glimpse into the meaningful work we do every day.
