For children with unique needs! Campers entering K-10th grade

---

Tikvah provides…

A summer camp experience for children and teens with varying exceptionalities such as cognitive, emotional, developmental and learning disabilities. Staff embraces each participant’s individuality, and supports campers in their efforts to improve their abilities and achieve their goals. New campers are assessed through the cooperative efforts of the Camp Shalom Director, parents or guardians, and input from school or private service providers. Low staff to camper ratio of 1:3 or 1:4 depending on need. Our low ratios give our campers the opportunity for adventure and accomplishment with the safest supervision standards. Families may also provide their own aides if they feel their children will benefit from a one to one ratio. Inclusion Camp Available for campers in K-6th grade Campers can be included in a group from one of our general day camp units. Inclusion campers will participate with their typically developing peers with a little more assistance by providing our 1:3 or 1:4 ratios. We give special consideration to matching personality types of other campers, as well as the primary counselor, to ensure the most successful experience. Campers who wish to participate in our inclusion program must get approval from the Camp Shalom Director prior to registering for camp.
