Project Title: Family Ties: CFK Day Camp
\nProject Description:<\/p>\n
Family Ties Day Camp is an innovative program designed to support adoptive youth ages 6-14, addressing the unique social and emotional challenges they often face. Recognizing that weekly therapy may not always provide sufficient support, Caring for Kids has worked to expand our behavioral health program with the addition of this week-long therapeutic day camp which offers an immersive experience focused on fostering social skills, building friendships, and promoting personal growth.<\/p>\n
That camp’s structure combines therapeutic interventions, such as group activities and social skill training, with opportunities for free play, peer connection, and skill-based activities. This balanced approach ensures participants have a supportive and engaging environment to develop essential life skills.<\/p>\n
Beyond the benefits for the youth, Family Ties Day Camp also provides a meaningful opportunity for families to grow closer. It is not uncommon for foster and adoptive families to feel at a loss for a network of support or a community that understands their unique perspective and family dynamic. By connecting children with peers who share similar experiences, the camp strengthens family dynamics and support systems, creating an environment where both youth and parents feel empowered and understood. <\/p>\n
Caring for Kids families have been asking for more connection, and we knew it was time to expand support to them! We opened a preliminary registration to get an outlook on interest for this day camp, with a goal of 16 youth participating in year one, but within 48 hours of opening registration, we had 21 youth on the waitlist. CFK is committed to walking with these families through every step of the way. We hope you will join us!<\/p>\n
