Camp Sunshine is a structured program developed for children, teens, and young adults between the ages of 3 and 21 who have moderate to severe autism spectrum disorder and other special needs. Our multidisciplinary team of professionals oversees a creative and fun camp program designed to help each child reach his or her highest potential and develop unique strengths and abilities. We group campers by age and ability and maintain a 1:3 counselor to camper ratio to maximize individual attention.

Our campers enjoy fun and enriching activities in a safe and nurturing environment in the Los Angeles area. Campers build confidence and self-esteem, practice important life skills, and take steps toward independence while making new friends and having fun.
