Camp 2Can
One Great Camp. Three Great Locations.
Camp 2Can is a specialized recreational program designed for children, teens, and young adults with autism who may need additional support to be successful in a traditional community-based camp setting. Campers experience meaningful social, recreational, and developmental opportunities in a structured, nurturing environment.
T-Shirt Note: Each camper receives 1 Camp 2Can tee shirt.
Explorers campers are required to wear this shirt on Monday and Thursday field trips.
Additional shirts may be purchased for $15 each.
What is Camp 2Can?
Camp 2Can empowers campers to discover what they can do—building confidence, exploring new experiences, and creating meaningful friendships while having fun.
All sites offer enjoyable, purposeful activities that promote growth, confidence, and connection, including arts and crafts, water-based activities, recreational sports, group games, and specialty learning experiences. Social skill-building is woven throughout the day to support friendships, communication, and cooperative play.
Camp registration and participation fees are subsidized through PALS fundraising, helping families access high-quality, inclusive programming.
