This year's SOAR Camp theme is Camp SOARLand, a family game night!
Camp at Abundant Life Church (304 SW Persels Rd. Lee's Summit, MO 64081) is the week of July 8-12, 2024, from 8:30am-4:30pm Monday through Friday. Volunteers can serve anywhere from 1 half-day to 5 full days as buddies to individuals with special needs, medical team, craft assistants, sensory rotation, outdoor games, hospitality, and more. Role descriptions can be viewed HERE. Volunteers will receive free lunch every day, and those who serve at least 3 full days earn a camp t-shirt. Volunteers must be going into 6th grade and older to volunteer without a parent present.
If you are 18 or older (by camp), and have not completed a background check with us within the past 3 years, you must submit a background check at least 3 business days in advance of the event. A background check application from SOAR Special Needs will be sent to your email after you register.

Mission Statement
Assist and empower families with special needs to SOAR in their local and faith communities with key resources, impactful activities, and thriving environments so that they can live beautiful lives.
Description
SOAR's core values come down to the three main questions every family with special needs asks: Will my children ever be able to provide for themself? Who will take care of my child after I'm gone? Who will take care of me?
These are important questions which deserve a committed organization for solving them. This is why SOAR exists - to provide a powerful destiny for individuals and families with special needs.
We offer FREE SOARly Needed R&R (Respite) nights, both in-person and virtual, for our families with individuals with special needs. During our in person R&R nights, we also have a simultaneous sibling program for siblings from birth to 13-year-old. Each evening has a special theme. These respite nights require volunteers on a regular basis in order to be successful.
We also offer a week long summer day camp for over 100 individuals with special needs. SOAR Camp is not possible without the help of many volunteers throughout the week.
