The Life Skills Camps are designed for adolescents, aged 13-18, to master skills such as cooking, cleaning, laundry, money handling and shopping. Two camp levels are offered. Introductory classes only meet on Wednesdays for six consecutive weeks and is lead by an occupational therapist and a speech language pathologist. Intermediate meets Monday through Friday from 9am-3pm for the week of July 26-30, is led by an occupational therapist and a special education teacher, and will also incorporate a pre-driving component. If you register before May 14th, each session costs $295; after that point registration is $325 per teen.
The PALSS Club is designed for a younger audience--children aged 6-9. "PALSS" stands for Practice And Learn Social Skills, and the daily sessions will cover concepts like personal space, body language, talking to peers, team work and sportsmanship. The camps meet once a week on either Wednesdays or Thursdays, depending which 6-week session you sign up for. A mandatory Meet & Greet on either May 5th or May 10th will allow parents to meet the camp leaders and determine whether their children would benefit from PALSS.For more information on either of these programs, contact Beth at 317-466-1000 x2501.
