Amy Weber, LCSW, runs a camp for neurodivergent children every summer, so she has a unique perspective on the summer challenges of neurodiverse families. She shares her insights on helping our kids thrive at summer day camp.

"The thing the kids value (and the thing the parents value) is the acceptance that they get at our camp. Everybody is fully accepted regardless of their meltdown status, regardless of what they had for lunch that day, regardless of whether or not they're able to participate in every single activity.
We really want the kids to have fun."
— Amy Weber, LCSW
