Youth THERAPEUTIC RECREATION CAMP (ADAPTIVE & INCLUSIVE) | 7-13 YRS Recreation Staff, Sponsored by Northwest Kiwanis Our Therapeutic Rec Day Camp is designed to serve youth with special needs. This camp joins one of our traditional day camps to promote an inclusive experience while accommodating each camper’s individual needs. Campers enjoy a variety of inclusive and adaptive programs, including recreation, pool swims and field trips along with our traditional campers, as well as small group therapeutic options, including guest instructors specializing in Art Therapy, Music Therapy, Therapeutic Recreation and adaptive sports. Campers must possess ability to attend to personal care such as toileting, dressing, and eating and be able to follow general cues and instructions of staff. Campers who require additional 1:1 ongoing assistance with these tasks and campers with behavioral challenges may be asked to have an aide in attendance to promote a successful experience for the camper. A sack lunch and afternoon snack must be packed daily. Our camper supervision ratio is 3:1, employing college level students (or higher) within Therapeutic Recreation, Special Education, Intervention Specialist, Adapted PE, or other related health sciences such as PT, OT, and SLP.
