SUCCESS STORIES

For our daughter Brooke, camp can be a time of stress, anxiety, and insecurity. But not this summer, thanks to your program! The NIP-trained counselors all embraced and accepted Brooke in a way that lifted her up, boosted her self confidence, and made her feel like one of the gang. We cannot tell you how much this means to us and to her.

We didn’t know it at the time, but this camp experience would be life-changing for James…I have watched his confidence and self-esteem grow each summer he attends, and there are no words to describe the joy it brings me to see my child thrive in this program. James would not be where he is today were if not for the training and support of the National Inclusion Project.

With National Inclusion Project’s help, we were able to provide Matthew with the support he needed to not just participate, but ultimately CONNECT with his fellow campers. In less than a week, we watched Matthew progress from needing continual support and encouragement to initiating conversations with counselors, advocating for himself, and eagerly staying and participating with his group.
