CAMP EDEN PROVIDES SUMMER FUN
FOR CHILDREN WITH AUTISM

Camp Eden, located at the Wawa Education & Retreat Center in Chaplin, Connecticut, is a privately owned coed residential camp for children with autism spectrum disorders. Established in 1995, its programs are specifically designed to focus on Adaptive and Therapeutic Recreation in a beautiful country setting. Camp Eden has successfully developed a unique program that caters to individual needs and cultivates personal growth. Those who have attended other regular or special camps without effective response have found their new experience at Eden to be particularly rewarding and beneficial. The staff at Camp Eden strives to develop a thorough understanding of each camper's specific needs. Its main program goal is to create a positive and comfortable setting for each child. Within these settings campers are exposed to a wide range of daily activities that inspire confidence and independence.

Come visit Camp Eden at its open house on Saturday, May 16th from 12 – 4 pm. Registration for Camp Eden ends May 31, 2009 and is on a first come first serve basis. The camp accepts children ages 7-21 who have been diagnosed with an Autism Spectrum Disorder.
