Mission Statement
CAMP's Mission is to strengthen and inspire individuals with special needs - and those who care for them - through Recreation, Respite and Education.
Description
Children's Association for Maximum Potential (CAMP) is a non-profit organization established in 1979 to provide a wide range of recreational, respite and education services for individuals with disabilities and their families. Central to each of CAMP's programs is the provision of medical support. This ensures that everyone, regardless of the degree of their medical needs, will be able to participate in all programs. CAMP's goal is to fill major gaps in services for individuals with developmental disabilities. This is also done indirectly by training potential care-providers at all levels in order to support families in the care of their family member with special needs. All CAMP programs take place at either the San Antonio facility or the Hill Country camp.
