Provincial Government Announces New Summer Camp Inclusion Grant
The Summer Camp Inclusion Grant aligns with the Provincial Government’s continued commitment to creating a more accessible and inclusive province. The grant provides financial assistance to pay for a support person to accommodate children with disabilities to attend and participate in summer camps.
This support person may be an inclusion worker, a caregiver, an attendant, an American Sign Language (ASL) Interpreter, a designated camp staff member, or any other person deemed appropriate by the family to support the child’s needs and participation at summer camp.
The Summer Camp Inclusion Grant provides funding of:
- Up to $1,000 to families with children with disabilities who require a support and/or inclusion worker to attend summer camp; or
- Up to $5,000 to organizations providing summer camps who wish to hire support and/or inclusion workers to accommodate children with disabilities.
This grant supports the Health Accord’s recommendation of building a provincial pathway to inclusion for a more inclusive health system and society in which each person feels valued and respected.
