About Camp Kehilla in Wheatley Heights, NY

At Camp Kehilla, we prioritize the unique needs of each and every camper. Our camp is designed to make the traditional summer camp experience available to those with special needs, providing a customized experience for children ages 5-21 with developmental disabilities, Autism spectrum disorder, and/or other neurodevelopmental conditions. Our approach combines the fun of typical camp activities such as swimming, arts & crafts, and sports with evidence-based social facilitation techniques to create a comfortable and supportive environment. With a flexible structure that allows each camper’s individual strengths to shine, our campers have the opportunity to make lasting friendships and develop social skills.
