Camp Courage Volunteers

What is Camp Courage?

Camp Courage is a day camp for children entering third through 12th grade who have experienced the death of a loved one. Children are placed in groups with peers their age and participate in small group activities (facilitated by our volunteers) and breakout sessions (facilitated by professionals from the community such as yoga instructors, sand tray therapists, child life specialists and others). To learn more, please visit our Camp Courage page.

What can I expect as a volunteer for Camp Courage?

Camp Courage would not be possible without our incredible volunteers! All of our volunteers receive specialized training prior to the start of camp. During camp, volunteers help facilitate activities and provide psychosocial support to our campers.
