Special Needs Weeks
Camp Fatima reserves a few weeks each summer to provide a fabulous camp experience to campers with special needs. Our founder was committed to providing children and adults with disabilities with a classic camp experience, and we have remained steadfast in this commitment. Today, we offer two programs:
Special Needs Week
Campers must be able to dress, eat, toilet and provide personal care for themselves with minimal supervision; walk unassisted; and be able to communicate his or her daily needs to the staff. Please contact Brendan Stackhouse at the camp office for more information.
Exceptional Citizens Week
Exceptional Citizens’ Week (EC Week) at Camp Fatima is a co‐ed, one week camp for children and adults ages 9+ with intellectual and/or physical challenges. Each camper receives one‐to‐one care and experiences a week of horseback riding, swimming, boating, arts and crafts, and many more special events that they otherwise may not be able to enjoy. The 300+ dedicated volunteers and many generous donors allow EC Week to offer this great week to over 170 campers at no cost to campers’ families and caregivers. The camp is wheelchair accessible and provides an on-site healthcare team available 24/7.
