When we think about summer, we can’t help but to think about summer camp. My own memories of summer camp as a kid are very special. It was a great chance to get away and have fun for an entire week.
The two resident camps of Courage Center Camps located in Minnesota offer a chance for children and adults with disabilities or illnesses to get away and have fun during the summer. They also have 12 regional day camps, located in Minnesota, North and South Dakota, and Wisconsin, giving campers a day of fun-filled activities.
Courage Center Camps are part of Courage Center, a nonprofit rehabilitation and resource center for people of all ages and abilities who are experiencing barriers to health and independence. Since 1955, Courage Center Camps have provided camping programs for children, teens, and adults with disabilities. We serve children and adults with physical disabilities and youth with speech and language impairments and who are deaf and hard of hearing. Campers learn, grow, make friends, and have fun in safe and accessible natural settings.
