Summer Camp for ADHD Kids? | ADHD Information
I am wondering if anyone knows of a summer camp for ADHD kids - in any state? My son is 8 and wants to attend a camp next year like all his friends did last year. However, because of his severe ADHD, he is not a candidate for a regular camp - any programs I've enrolled in him before - like YMCA or Boy's & Girls club always call me within 2 hours to come pick him up. They can't handle him (not to mention school and daycare can't either!) I feel so sorry for him that he can't participate in things like this because of his disability, and just want him to be able to experience all the fun and growth I had as a kid going to camp!
jrenee, There are lots of camps that have ADHD programs. I found alot of links just doing a google search on ADHD Camps. Here are just a few of the links.
