When you're busy supporting others, it can be easy to put your own needs aside. But self-care isn't selfish, it's an important part of maintaining your own wellbeing.🌼

Summer Camp application updates are currently being sent to families across the province. Everyone will receive notice of their camper’s status by May 31, 2026.

This year, we received a very large number of applications, with many being submitted at nearly the same time. Applications were reviewed on a first come, first served basis.

We are focusing on offering as many campers as possible access to one week of camp, before considering additional weeks pending availability. Families currently on a waitlist may still be contacted throughout the summer if spaces become available.

We sincerely appreciate everyone’s patience, understanding, and continued interest in Summer Camp programming. If you have any questions, please visit: https://www.autismnovascotia.ca/?p=3635
