Altitude: Partnering with Families - Where life skills develop and friendships blossom- operates two week summer camps on the East and West Coasts, for boys & girls with social cognitive challenges.
The campers will eat in the dining facilities provided to us by the university. If your child has any dietary restrictions or allergies, this will be addressed during the intake process and it may be possible to make accommodations.
Session Information
Altitude programs create opportunities for our campers to increase self confidence and boost self esteem through practice, support, encouragement, and positive experiences. We provide our campers with a safe and structured environment so that they can feel comfortable enough to be themselves - and at the same time secure enough to take risks that propel them towards achieving their potential at camp, home, and in their communities.
Valuing the individuality of each of our campers, we aim to highlight their unique strengths and help them to utilize their gifts to confront challenges and develop new skills and enhance existing ones. These life lessons and positive experiences then travel home with them as they apply them at home, at school and in their social relationships.
