The Help Group's Summer Camps

Summer Camps
The Help Group summer camps provide a safe and enriching atmosphere for children with autism spectrum disorder and other special needs. Our four unique day camps, located in the Los Angeles area, create opportunities for children and teens to engage, experience, and explore. Each camp strives to developmentally and chronologically match children across the spectrum to ensure an appropriate peer group for learning and fun. Children and teens will participate in many daily camp activities, such as field trips, art projects, sensory play, outside games, special events, animal assisted activities, and much more!
