Special Needs Camp - Tikvah (Hope)
Tikvah provides…
A summer camp experience for children and teens with
varying exceptionalities such as cognitive, emotional,
developmental and learning disabilities. Staff that
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 Tikvah
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.
