Description:
Every child is precious.
For children with Learning Disabilities and/or ADHD (Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder) and those with incontinence or enuresis (bed wetting) difficulties, a positive overnight camping experience can mean the diffecence between succeeding and struggling in life.
Established in 1993, Camp Kirk is a residential (overnight) summer camp for boys and girls age 6 to 13 with special needs such as:
- Learning Disabilities
- Attention Deficit Disorders (ADD)
- Some Autistic Spectrum Disorders (ASD)
- Incontinence/bedwetting difficulties (bladder or bowel control issues)
Our mission is to provide a nurturing, non-competitive and structured environment that allows these children the opportunity to enjoy a residential camping experience and to develop social, emotional and physical skills, thereby raising their self esteem.
Camp Kirk is unique in that each and every camper has some form of learning disability. Together, they learn that they are not alone, and that it is possible to focus and build on their strengths and abilities in order to help them become the best that they can be.
