Hear What Families Are Saying About Our Summer Camp for Teens
"My son loved his first summer at Charis Hills and can't wait for next summer. It is a great option for autistic kids and teens! We are telling all our friends!"
"Our son has been attending Charis Hills Camp for several years. They are great at correspondence and have such big hearts. Our son will never attend anywhere else!"
"This is the best summer camp ever. My daughter has been attending since the age of 9 and is now 16. The staff are so caring and understanding. The activities are fun and varied. And the daily infusion of Christian teachings is a blessing you won't find at many other camps.
My daughter has ADHD, ODD, and is very impulsive. They have never tried to send her home; have always been able to redirect her and properly care for her. She feels loved and accepted there and cries every time she leaves. So don't believe the negative reviews.
100% recommend this camp!"
