See What Parents Are Saying About Our Summer Camp for Kids
"If you had asked me a year ago if I thought this kind of transformation was possible, I would’ve said absolutely not. But camp changed everything. It became the beacon of hope we so desperately needed—the light that helped bring our sunshine back from the shadows she had retreated into. And we are beyond grateful."
"I am beyond grateful for this experience for my son. I loved overnight camp as a kid and I have been worried that he would not be able to have that experience given his behavior and emotional challenges, so finding you all is truly an incredible blessing. I am also so grateful for the financial scholarship he was awarded.I felt so at ease thanks to all the personal attention you gave to us in learning about him before arrival - that helped immensely. He wasn't just a faceless number - he was an individual that you all wanted to help. I am also so happy this is a safe place where he will not be made fun of and can be encouraged to be himself."
"This wonderful camp is specifically for ASD/ADHD children. My son had a blast! I asked him what his favorite part of camp was-his answer was, 'The activities and the awesome staff! Can I come back next year?' The administration was very thorough in getting prepared for check-in beforehand. It took all of MAYBE 20 minutes, and took hundreds of pictures everyday to help friends and family feel included during camp. The counselors all made a remarkable impact on my son! If the attached picture isn't pure happiness, I don't know what is. I'm very impressed with Charis Hills!"
