Our two-week day camp stresses having fun while learning everyday skills that promote independence. The Camp meets at the agency's northwest Detroit facility during the summer months.

Children with visual impairments from ages 5 to 15 participate in specialized activities, where low student-to-staff ratios insure individualized training as well as group experiences.

Activities of daily living such as cooking, cleaning, and getting organized are learned through hands-on instruction in our newly updated apartment and kitchen. Community field trips introduce youngsters to resources for learning. An active lifestyle and good nutrition are emphasized.

Parents are welcome to observe their child's progress as well as receive additional training, resources, and support for continuing the growth spurred by this summer program.

Building Dreams... One Camper at a Time

Organized by age, children with visual impairments are taught by certified instructors, insuring high-quality, one-on-one training, lots of care, and guidance. Each child gains:

• New Skills
• Lasting Friendships
• Greater Self-Confidence

Children achieve individual goals through challenging yet enjoyable activities, carefully designed to cultivate positive personal growth, stimulate cognitive development, and create lasting friendships.

Goals are achieved by learning:

• everyday living skills
• social skills
• diversity awareness
• safety
• mobility - how to get around safely
• techniques that build self-esteem
• independence
• how to have fun through it all!
