65 campers and 32 staff members live on site in groups of 7 campers to every three counselors. We must respect individuality. Every person is gifted with unique learning styles, talents, aspirations, strengths and weaknesses. All these characteristics must be recognized and respected.
Self awareness is a product of change and risk.
Teamwork and multiple approaches effectively solve problems. In accordance with our Mission and Beliefs, campers are placed within a compatible group of children with similar needs. In our structured programs, campers receive a specialized placement with staff who understands their individuality. Our staff teaches self-awareness, social development, and creates a safe environment where friendships can be made. If you treat an individual as he is, he will stay as he is, but if you treat him as if he were what he ought to be and could be, he will become what he ought to be and could be.
