DescriptionBack to top

Deaf Camps, Inc. is a volunteer-run non-profit organization dedicated to providing fun, safe, communication-rich camps that promote the physical, spiritual, and social development of Deaf/hard of hearing children and children learning American Sign Language. Deaf Camps, Inc. runs camps for deaf or hard of hearing children ages 7 to 19, alongside ASL camps for hearing children ages 8 to 18, who learn ASL through shared activities with deaf peers. Older ASL Campers will share lodging and all activities with deaf campers, giving them a true immersion experience. Campers swim, hike, go rafting, do arts and crafts, play games, and make new friends! Returning campers attest: Deaf Camp is the best week of their summer.
