The JUNIOR AUTISM & SOCIAL CONNECTIONS CAMP is part of the 'Mindware Psychology Adventure Program (MAP) - Helping children find their compass of life' and is designed for junior campers (7 - 13 years) that may present with higher needs. The camp aims to help build the self confidence, resilience and independence of it's participants in a group setting through their participation in graduated outdoor activities. Participants will challenge themselves daily with therapy supports on hand to support them with their own growth. Our goal is to support them to overcome anxiety about social situations and develop life skills that increase their confidence in their own abilities.
As part of our camp package, your child will receive:
- Pre and Post Assessments by Psychologists
- Pre and Post Clinical interviews with a Psychologist
- A brief Report prepared by Psychologists that can be used to inform ongoing therapy/funding options
- 2 nights & 3 days of intensive outdoor therapy including two nights camping out and preparing meals
- Nutritious meals that can meet dietary requirements
- Supported group team building activities
- Challenging adventures that will encourage participants to engage with others and make the most of social occasions and new experiences
