Dunes Learning Center is accredited by the American Camp Association. ACA camps reflect current best practices and set the standard for the industry with regular, independent health and safety audits of camp operations. The ACA accreditation process is voluntary and demonstrates excellence, accountability, and an ongoing commitment to the children we serve.

Accreditation is made possible through generous support of the Friends of Indiana Dunes.
