Navigate Life Texas: Resources for kids with disabilities and special needs
Held twice a year at the barrier free facilities of Camp For All in Burton, Texas, Camp LIFE provides recreation for children ages 5 and up with disabilities and their siblings while offering a weekend of respite for their parents.
Camp LIFE gives campers the choice to participate in every activity you would see at any other traditional camp. Campers can experience horseback riding, fishing, archery, the zip line and rope course activities, as well as a petting zoo, canoeing, dancing and even karaoke.
The camp is staffed by pre-service special education students at Texas A&M who have the rare opportunity to experience a weekend supporting children like those they will one day serve in the classroom. Availability of a one-to-one counselor to camper ratio ensures that each camper with a disability receives the support he or she needs to fully participate in all activities. Additionally, sibling campers enjoy an extra dose of attention not always available to them when their parents are understandably busy caring for their child who has disabilities.
