dc73 Here is NICHCY's quick connect to camps and summer opportunities. Some of the listings below identify camps available to all children, while some are especially for children who have disabilities. It is also very likely that your community has summer camps or recreational opportunities available that you won't find listed here. To find out what's available in your community, consult local sources of information such as your child's teachers, parks and/or recreation departments, area private schools, religious organizations, other community groups, parent centers, and fellow parents.
