The Willow Tree
A symbol of vibrant energy, its lively branches sway gracefully with even the slightest breeze.
It embodies strength, adaptability, and growth —qualities we strive to nurture in our campers.
Camp Willow's Mission
Changing Lives
At Camp Willow, our mission is to create a space where youth ages 8-17, with moderate ADHD and related conditions like social anxiety or learning differences feel welcomed, valued, and understood. Inspired by the willow tree’s symbolism of strength and adaptability, we use nature, outdoor activities, evidence-based practices and positive reinforcement to help campers grow, build self-esteem, and improve focus. Our overnight camp provides support in a fun setting—perfect for those who don’t need the full structure of a specialty camp. We also support parents, providing them with resources and guidance to better understand and empower their children.
Why Camp Willow?
Camp Willow is not your typical camp. We are the premier overnight summer camp, located on the West Coast of USA, specifically designed for kids with ADHD, learning differences and social anxiety. While we offer all the classic camp fun, we go beyond with specialized activities and programs that empower our campers with essential tools for thriving in their daily lives. Additionally we provide support and tools for parents.
Our programs are designed to:
-
Develop social emotional skills
-
Practice impulse control
-
Instill mindfulness
