Providing sports, recreation and fun to children with disabilities.

Our mission is to empower children with disabilities from marginalized communities in and around Chicago by enhancing their self-efficacy through active participation in sports and other enriching activities. We provide a fully adapted, inclusive, and affirming environment that fosters growth, confidence, and community—all at no cost to the families.

Today is World Cerebral Palsy Day 🌍 a global movement for and by the 50 million people living with cerebral palsy, their families, and the supporters who show up for them every day.

At CAMP, we see that community in action all summer long: kids tackling adaptive sports, mobility play, and new experiences built around what they CAN do, not what holds them back. This day is a reminder that inclusion isn't a one-time event, it's a daily commitment from families, partners, and neighbors like ours.

This World CP Day, we're joining the global ask: share the change you want to see, and tag a local leader, business, or community organization who can help make it happen. Who's showing up for the CP community in your corner of the world? 🫶

CAMP isn't just adapted activities, it's the people who make each one personal.

Our volunteers sit down, listen, and connect one-on-one with every camper. Real conversations, real friendships, real presence. That's what turns an activity into an experience.

To every volunteer who shows up ready to meet a camper exactly where they are: thank you. You are CAMP.

Snacks, ping pong, and moments. 😄

Not every part of CAMP is a big adventure; sometimes it's just kids being kids: hanging out, laughing, and enjoying a little downtime together at Movement Gym.

This is what inclusive play looks like: no barriers, no pressure, just room to be themselves.

Up, up, and adapted. 🧗

Movement Gym in Lincoln Park, our campers took on the climbing wall their own way, with adaptive rigging that let them experience the challenge, the height, and the pure joy of getting to the top.

Every camper climbs differently. Every camper climbs anyway.

Day 3 at CAMP had a plan: Maggie Daley & Millennium Park for adaptive rock climbing, putt putt golf, a stop at The Bean, and wheelchairs on the Ribbon.

⛈️ Then it rained. So we pivoted, because that's what CAMP does.

🌟 Huge thanks to Movement Gym in Lincoln Park for opening their doors and making the day happen anyway. Campers took on challenging climbing walls, made friendship bracelets, played some ping pong, and grabbed snacks in between.

⚡ Rain didn't stop CAMP. It just proved the point: there's always a way to adapt and keep the day going.

More from CAMP coming this week.

Beach Day at CAMP, the quiet moments mattered just as much as the big splashes.

CAMP: A calm moment to just sit in the lake and take it all in, A laughs shared, A walk along the sand. These are the moments that don't always make the highlight reel, but they're just as much a part of what CAMP gives these kids: space, time, and the freedom to just be a kid at the beach.

Beach Day at CAMP wasn't just about the water, it was about the moments in between.

Digging in the sand. A laugh shared close up. These are the small, ordinary joys of a day at the beach, the ones every kid deserves to have, adapted mobility needs or not.

CAMP makes sure of it. Every piece of gear, every volunteer, every detail exists so these moments can happen without limits.

Beach Day at CAMP meant getting out on the water, and getting soaked doing it.

Kayaking, water guns, sandcastles, all of it built around making sure every camper could get in on the fun, life jackets and adaptive seating included. That grin says it all: this is what a day at the beach is supposed to feel like.

CAMP doesn't just bring kids to the beach. It makes sure they can actually be IN it.

Day 2 of CAMP took the kids to the beach.

Sun, sand, and water, three things that are so often off-limits for kids with adapted mobility needs. Not at CAMP. With the right adaptive equipment and volunteers by their side, every camper got to feel that sand between their toes and get in the water like any other kid at the beach.

This is what CAMP does best: it takes the ordinary parts of childhood that too many of these kids have been told to sit out, and makes them possible.
