Can’t make it to camp in person?
CONNECTED – Where camp comes to you!
What is CONNECTED?
Our digital program, reaching campers and families who may not be able to attend an in-person program at this time.
Is FREE for kids 9-19 (whether newly diagnosed, in treatment, or in remission) and their families.
CONNECTED is built on three primary program pillars: SUPPORT & BELONGING, HEALTH & WELLNESS, EXPLORATION & DISCOVERY which guide the planning and implementation of each program we offer.
Our full program suite offers something for everyone, from on-demand programs you can do on your own, to single or multi-session programs with your camp friends, and educational sessions for our community.
