LIFE CAMP
Life Camp at Camp Allen is a seven day program for young adults who want to live more independently. Unlike other sessions of the summer, Life Camp is a small group of no more than 12 campers. This allows the group to bond, work as a team, and let their voices be heard. For some participants, their goal of living independently may be just beginning. For others, they may be well on the way and need to further develop existing skills. Life Camp provides opportunities for growth, and will provide support regardless of where the camper is on their journey. Included in the tuition fee for this session, is a $100 allowance that each participant in Life Camp will receive, to pay for their food, transportation, fun, and any other expenses they incur during the week.
