It's Camp, With A Mental Health Twist

What do you get when you have a licensed therapist, an art therapist, and a sports therapist in a cool house in the Heights, doing cool things with cool kids aged 7-10?CAMP CATALYST!

The structure/agenda of the camp will (basically) be chill, special therapeutic activity, lunch (which they will make themselves and serve themselves, Montessori style), special therapeutic activity, chill, clean up and get dismissed.

Two sessions to choose from: July 18-22 and August 1-5, Monday through Friday from 8:30am to 3pm, lunch included, $725 per session. You get a $100 discount if you are a returning Calm Crusader or a sibling of a camper.
