The adults may be just beginners in the area of AAC, though they should have some knowledge of the child's system. Adults who live within close proximity to the camp in Empire have the option of going home in the evenings after the evening activity, and returning in the morning after the campers have had breakfast and are ready for their first morning activity. For adults who come from further away, accommodations are available at the camp. Adults must be at camp by the check-in time, the first day of camp, and remain until their camper has checked out, the last day of camp. There will be on-going training for the adults the first day of camp and throughout the week.
College credit is available for adult participants.
An important component of the TWT Camp program is that of sibling participation. We prefer siblings to be at least 8 years of age. It is also important for the siblings that there be others at camp in the same age category. So, again, this may determine acceptance of a sibling into the program. We do not accept an adult participant's child as the sibling substitute.
