- Attend a weekend, overnight camp with lodging and all meals provided
- Experience traditional camp activities such as a giant swing, crafts, hiking, bonfires, swimming, climbing wall, giant slip-and-slide, fishing, paddle boating, team games, and more!

- Connect with other youth who understand their challenges and bond with adults that they can trust
- Go home with resources to know that they didn’t CAUSE it, can’t CONTROL it, can’t CURE it, but they can take CARE of themselves, by COMMUNICATING their feelings, making good CHOICES, and CELEBRATING them!
