💛 Every Camper Deserves a Place to Belong.

For individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities (IDD), a simple camp experience can be life-changing. It’s not just about swimming, games, or crafts—it’s about friendship, freedom, and unforgettable joy. It’s about being seen, celebrated, and included.

Across Oregon, dozens of compassionate camps are opening their doors and hearts to create spaces where abilities shine, laughter is shared, and memories are made. But the truth is—many families don’t know these opportunities exist. And many programs need support to keep running strong.

🌟 Whether you’re a parent, a caregiver, a volunteer, or someone who simply cares—you can make a difference.


👉 Take Action Today:

  • Explore a camp near you and enroll a camper who deserves this joy.

  • Share this list with families and organizations who need it.

  • Reach out to a camp and ask how you can help—as a donor, a volunteer, or an advocate.

  • Celebrate inclusion. Because everyone deserves to play, grow, and belong.

Let’s build a more inclusive Oregon, one campfire story at a time. 🏕️💫
