CAMPERSHIPS Nothing personifies summer in a child's life better than summer camp.

Easter Seals Northern Ohio supports opportunities for children and adults with disabilities to experience summer camp settings specifically designed to accommodate their individual needs.  Through our Campership Program, people of all ages can attend the camp of their choice, some for overnight periods and others in a day camp setting.

The program provides financial assistance to people with disabilities who may not otherwise be able to afford summer camp.  To make this summer a memorable one, don't miss the April 18, 2014 application deadline.  For more information, contact our office at 1.888.325.8532 or download the Campership Application.

 ADAPTIVE AQUATICS PROGRAM                                   

Making a splash in the community

For over 25 years, Easter Seals' Adaptive Aquatics Program has helped children and adults with disabilities stay active year-round.  The program allows participants the opportunity to experience the sensation of being in the water, teaches basic elements of water safety, and is an outlet for socialization and recreation.

One unique aspect of the program is that both children and their families participate in the program, providing the entire family physical recreation and a venue to interact with others socially and emotionally.  For more information, please contact your local Easter Seals Northern Ohio office at 330.722.8558.
