We owe you all a little apology… and a big update!
The past few months at our center have been very busy in the best way. We’ve been focused on the important, day-to-day work of supporting our community, and (very honestly) our camp planning got pushed to the side for a bit.
But in true neurodivergent fashion… we got it DONE in time ✔️
And now everything is officially ready and live on our website!!

🌟 Summer Camp: The Great Big Adventure is HERE 🌟

This summer, we’re creating a space where neurodivergent kids can explore, imagine, and just be themselves in a supportive, sensory-friendly environment.

Each week brings a new adventure:
🌿 Nature Explorers (June 15–18)
🌊 Ocean Quest (July 13–16)
🐉 Mythical Journey (August 10–13)

Our camp runs 4 days a week from 10am–3pm at our New Cumberland community center and is designed for rising Kindergarten through 5th grade.

Think:
✨ Hands-on activities
✨ Creative projects
✨ Outdoor exploration
✨ Social connection in a safe, inclusive space

Spots filled up fast last summer, so we highly recommend registering as soon as possible if you’re interested!

💻 Registration is now open on our website
💲 $225 per week (save $75 when you book all 3!)

We are so excited for another summer of adventure, connection, and celebrating every child exactly as they are !

An interesting study on childhood adversity and brain development.

New research using data from over 7,000 children suggests that adversity during late childhood accelerates brain network development. While these changes may buffer against anxiety and depression, they are also associated with poorer school performance.
