Narrative

For nearly 90 years, Camp Wediko has thoughtfully combined a true summer camp experience with therapy and individual supports. It provides a fun-filled seasonal adventure for youth who otherwise wouldn't have access to such a key developmental experience.

Campers come from all over the country and bring with them a range of life experiences, strengths, and challenges. Wediko staff specializes in working with students who present with a wide variety of mental health struggles. These can encompass emotional regulation, acting-out behaviors, executive functioning and impulsivity issues, and social skills deficits. 

Campers live in cabins and spend their days in constant motion, enjoying outdoor activities and participating in periods of literacy, math and science. We help them carry social and emotional skills into the classroom. Special events are also planned throughout the summer, including talent shows, themed dinners and more!
