Does your business or organization support individuals on the autism spectrum? 💚

Camp Encourage launched Camp Family Events to provide free, welcoming, judgment-free opportunities for families of children on the autism spectrum to connect, relax, and simply enjoy being together in a space where they feel understood and accepted.

Due to the incredible response from families, we are expanding to seven Camp Family Events in 2026 and are seeking community partners who believe in acceptance, compassion, and belonging.

Sponsoring Camp Family Events is a meaningful way to:
💚 Connect with local autism families and supportive community members
🤝 Build trust and visibility in a welcoming environment
☀️ Demonstrate your commitment to inclusion and belonging
📣 Receive recognition through events and Camp Encourage communications

All sponsorship levels are welcome and recognized. Sponsors at the $500+ level may also host an information table at an event.

Help us continue offering these events free to families throughout the year!

Volunteers, campers, and parents provide feedback after camp sessions. How sweet is this reflection from a volunteer?

"Campers socialize in ways I don't think they get the chance to elsewhere. A parent told me their camper doesn't often hang out with other kids, and hugely prefers solo activities, but once they got settled into their cabin, they opened up to so many other campers throughout the week. Watching them make friends is so precious. Camp is an undeniably perfect environment to meet new people and try new things."

WE WOULD LOVE YOUR SONG RECOMMENDATIONS!

As we wrap up each summer camp, we gather everyone together for a slideshow of photos from the week. Parents often share how amazed they are that their campers brave new things and they treasure seeing their child full of smiles.

We try to pair sweet (and fun!) songs when sharing the photos. Might YOU have any song recommendations? If so, please place your ideas (Song Title and Artist) in the comments below! 👇

Camp is not a luxury.

For a child who has never gone fishing or horseback riding,
it’s an introduction to lifelong joy and recreation.

We understand that each camper has his/her/their own interests, motivators, strengths, and areas for need of support and growth.
Although we provide a great deal of individualized supports, many of our activities also aim to achieve these general goals.
