Camp Ramah in California-Ezra

Camp Ramah in California-Ezra The Tikvah program at Camp Ramah is designed for Jewish adolescents, ages 18-25, with learning, emotional, and developmental disabilities.

Ezra, a 7-week vocational training program, captures the passion and excitement of Camp Ramah. During the summer, young adults live at camp, along side 1400 staff and campers. They fill their days with job site experience, life skill classes, recreational activities and living Judaism. The Ezra Program allows participants to take their existing skills and enhance them to live more independent and

productive lives. The independent living experience at Camp Ramah improves functioning through:

Vocational Skills
independent living abilities
self-image
social functioning
Jewish community skills

Camp provides an ideal setting for Ezra participants who live in communal, independent living quarters with peers under adult supervision. Participants learn lessons of responsibility, kinship, sportsmanship and sharing. Participants receive job-training experience in a number of service areas throughout camp and are held accountable for their interpersonal relationships in the Ramah community. Program goals include preparing young adults for independent living and teaching them employment related skills. In addition to personal development, the Ezra program includes specific components to enhance their independent living experience:

Cafe Ezra - participants devote one evening a week to running a cafe for the entire camp staff
Buddy Program - participants are designated a special staff buddy to enhance friendships and interpersonal skills
Days off - each week participants will collaboratively plan their day off activity

I consider Camp Ramah my home away from home. I enjoy having all of my friends at camp around me and I see Camp Ramah as an escape from the stressfulness of my everyday life during the school year.
