This is dynamic community-based programming in a variety of camps throughout the summer for youth with autism. Our camps are interest-based and theme-orientated, so whether it is our regular Out and About and Sunny Daze camps, or any of our specialty camps like Chefs on the Go, Outdoor Adventure, Girls Camp, or Computer Camp, there is something for everyone! Activities include: nature walks, hiking, swimming, mini-golf, bowling, kayaking, rock climbing, physical literacy sessions (PISE), arts and craft, multi-media technology, cooking, theatre, movies, gardening, programs run by Power To Be and much more.
- Our skilled and knowledgeable team of Behaviour Interventionists, who lead the camps, support youth to: build friendships, gain confidence, strengthen social and communication skills, and gain life-skills. This program is eligible for coverage through Autism Funding Unit and CLV can assist families to manage and budget their funding.
Who can attend? youth 9 - 18 years with Autism Spectrum Disorder (Autism, PDD_NOS included). Applicants requiring extra support (1:1) are welcome to apply with accompanying support workers or request support for this through our program.
Locations vary based on the different camps. The registration form is available at http://www.communitylivingvictoria.ca/specialized-camps or email autism@clvic.ca to request details.
