Call to Action: Special Needs Summer Camp Planning & Brainstorm Session

🌞 Join the Conversation: Bridging the Summer Gap for Children with Special Needs 🌈

Summer should be a time of growth, joy, and connection for all children—but for many families raising children with special needs, finding accessible and supportive camp or childcare options can feel impossible.

Let’s change that—together.

We’re inviting parents, camp directors, educators, service providers, and local leaders to join us for a collaborative community conversation. This is more than a meeting—it’s a space to be heard.

Come share your stories—the barriers you’ve faced, the support you’ve needed, and why this matters so deeply for our families. Let’s listen, learn, and begin creating solutions that reflect the real needs of our community.

🩵We’ll explore: The challenges families face each summer
