YMCA Mission Statement: "To put Christian principals into practice through programs that build a healthy spirit, mind and body for all."

Deaf Session

Whether you’re looking for an inclusive camp environment for your deaf or hard-of-hearing child, or a way to expose your child to diversity, come join us for Session 7 for a unique camp experience. 

Since 1982 Camp Indian Springs has provided an environment where deaf, hard-of-hearing, and hearing campers can learn from each other and enjoy the camp experience together.
 

With the help of interpreters and deaf staff members, in addition to the regular YMCA staff, the camp is accessible to everyone.  Deaf campers participate in activities with hearing campers, and share cabins together.

There is also a week-long LIT program available for deaf campers who are 14-16 years old, where they learn about leadership, responsibility, and Deaf Culture from deaf staff members.

Employment Opportunities
