So says science and the Dalai Lama — and the lifeblood of ACA, dedicated camp staff and volunteers, are taking that to heart and making a positive difference in the lives of children and young adults across the US and beyond. The empathy and genuine concern modeled at camp and fostered in the campers are steps toward a brighter future for all. Campers are living proof that the acts of kindness and intentional learning camp staff and volunteers are offering through day and overnight camp experiences are having a lasting, positive impact within the camp environment, in surrounding communities, and especially in the lives of the children they serve. Our camp professionals (camp directors, camp counselors, and other staff) and the camp experience itself change lives. We provide opportunities for campers to learn about themselves, develop character, make lifelong friends, gain crucial 21st-century skills — responsibility, communication, creativity, collaboration, initiative, leadership, the list goes on — and implement all of this into their daily lives. Parents often tell us that their child changes for the good after camp. They come home with a more positive attitude and self- confidence.
