If you know the Percy Jackson stories, you may remember that Percy’s ADHD and dyslexia weren’t viewed as weaknesses—they were signs that his brain worked differently for a reason.
Camp Half-Blood is inspired by that same idea.
Many kids with ADHD and executive functioning challenges are bright, creative, energetic, emotionally intense, and capable of incredible things when they are in the right environment. Our goal is to create a camp experience where kids feel understood, successful, and connected while building confidence and real-world skills along the way.
This is not a therapy camp pretending to be fun.
It’s a genuinely fun camp intentionally designed with neurodivergent kids in mind.
