F.R.I.E.N.D.S. Social Skills Summer Camp is a six to eight week program that provides opportunities for children/adults with Autism  (ages 5 to 21)  to engage in fun social activities with typical children. These activities focus on social skills, reciprocal conversations, pragmatics of language, self-regulation, expressing feelings, and cooperative play.  This unique camp experience will also provide an educational and academic model that translates into successful experiences for the child in their home, school, and within their community.

 

Here at F.R.I.E.N.D.S., quality is more important than quantity. Therefore, a maximum of 90 children (approximately 80 children with Autism Spectrum Disorders and approximately 10 typical children) are accepted into our Savannah program.  Prior to acceptance, each child will undergo intensive screening by our staff to ensure that each child can have a successful and rewarding camp experience.  All enrollment applications, non-refundable registration fees, and tuition payments are due no later than May 1st of each year. Carefully read the link "Instructions on How to Save the Summer Camp Enrollment Application" before submitting your application electronically.  Emailed applications that are saved incorrectly will be blank.
