Interested in Summer Camp for Your Cerebral Palsy Child?

Summertime is approaching, and many parents are considering camp opportunities for their children. There are camps across the country that cater their programs to children with cerebral palsy and other disabilities. Below are a few resources that can help you in your search to find the best summer camp for your child:

Parenting Special Needs article on summer camps – provides detailed descriptions of various camps from Florida to Texas and California

UCP Listing of Summer Camps – offers comprehensive camp guides as well as information on individual camps

Very Special Camps – a website devoted to providing information on camps and programs for people with special needs. Camps can be searched according to a specific disability.
 

Easter Seals Residential and Day Camps – by contacting the organization through their website, you can learn more about Easter Seals camps across the U.S.

In our search for resources, we also came across two individual camps geared toward children with cerebral palsy: Shady Oaks Cerebral Palsy Camp in Homer Glen, Illinois and Camp Jabberwocky in Martha's Vineyard. We think their sites might be worth checking out as well.
