Neurodiversity
At One Generation Camp, we value children of all types and abilities and welcome neurodiversity. Introducing our new week of camp specifically designed for campers with neurodivergence!
Over the years One Generation Camp has attracted campers who may struggle in a typical school setting, but blossom beautifully in the outdoor semi-structured environment of our camp. Many campers with neurodivergence thrive in our camp and have since our inception. For those who may need even smaller settings and more support than is typically offered during camp, this week is for them! This specialized week of camp is designed specifically for campers ages 5 to 10. During this week, our instructional dance and drumming classes are be reduced to 45 minutes and our child to staff ratio is increased in order to accommodate differences in needs.
This may be a good fit if:
-
Your child finds nature calming
-
Your child thrives in a smaller group setting
-
Your child needs space to move
-
Your child has mild support needs
-
Your child is non-aggressive
-
Your child can hike for one hour
-
Your child does well in inclusive settings
-
Your child is able to use a bathroom on their own
-
Your child may need time recover from overstimulation
-
Your child needs more support and individualized attention
-
You are willing to work as a team with us to support your child
​If these statements describe your child our Neurodivergent week might be the right fit for your child.
