Many summer programs, whether in-person or virtual, are an invaluable source of growth and development, offering the chance to improve social skills, have educational fun in STEM and visual arts, and get some physical activity in. To help parents learn about the available options, every year we compile an extensive list of summer camps, classes, and programs that accommodate kids with disabilities. Check out this year's list on our Camps decoder page!
All the programs on our list are vetted by the Undivided Research Team to ensure that they'll benefit our kiddos. In this clip, Adriana explains what she and her team look for before recommending a camp or class to parents:
