Camps
Autism camps, state by state
47 camps across 33states, each checked against the camp’s own website — day camps, overnight camps, respite weekends, and the ones that serve adults as well as children.
Before you look at cost:your Medicaid waiver’s respite hours can often be spent on camp, billed as out-of-home respite. It is almost never advertised in those words. How to fund a camp place →
Find a camp in your state
Only states where we have verified at least one camp appear here, and a camp is only listed once we have a way for you to reach it — a phone number, email, website or address. A listing you cannot act on looks like an answer and is not one. Missing states are honest gaps in our data, not a claim that nothing exists there.

Camps that serve adults
The hardest thing to find, and the thing families most often assume does not exist. It does — it simply does not advertise. Camp Blue Skies in North Carolina is 21 and over. Challenge Alaska’s Summit Camp is built for autistic young adults aged 18 to 25. Camp Walapei in Mississippi is adults only. Camp CAMP in Texas runs from 5 to 55, and Mephibosheth Ministries in Indiana takes campers from 13 through adults of any age at all. Several Easterseals camps and Camp ASCCA in Alabama serve all ages year-round.
How to choose and fund a camp →
Waiver respite, Extended School Year, the questions to ask, and whether your child is ready for overnight.
Clubs & activities year-round →
For the other fifty weeks — sports, social groups and interest-based clubs.
Camps change their age ranges, dates and fees every year. Always confirm directly before planning around anything here. If we have something wrong, or you know a camp we are missing, tell us.
