About Family Camp  

Do you or a family member have a developmental disability? When was the last time you had a vacation together? These unique, Christian faith-based camps are fully supported and accessible, so everybody – parents, people with disabilities, and siblings who are sometimes caregivers - can belong, have fun, relax, and recharge.  

Do you want to be a difference-maker?  As a volunteer, you can come alongside a person with a disability and help them have the best week ever. As a donor, you can make a family’s dream of an accessible vacation come true.
