Respite Weekends

Respite Weekends are held in Spring & Fall. The retreats offer opportunities for existing and potential campers to experience weekends with unique programming. Respite sessions help restore spirit and mind, maintain friendships and develop new friendships, and recharge caregivers while reinforcing skills and guiding caregivers through behaviour management skills and coping strategies.

Camper Respite Weekends

Our Respite Weekends serve neurodiverse youth who are 7-17 years of age. Some campers require 1:1 support while others manage with 1:2 counselling. Youth have the opportunity to participate in and explore a variety of activities that the camp has to offer all while learning valuable skills.
