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.
Camp 2Can empowers campers to discover what they can do—building confidence, exploring new experiences, and creating meaningful friendships while having fun.
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.
