CAMP CHATTERBOX! is a unique social camp for children. Our own Speech-Language Pathologists created the curriculum with one goal in mind...success for our clients with social skills challenges.
 | Our campers are children, 3 to 18 years of age, with the following diagnoses:
- Apraxia of Speech
- Autism
- Developmental Disability
- Dysarthria
- Language Disorder
- Oral Motor Dysfunction
- Pervasive Developmental Disorder
- Pragmatic Language Disorder
|
Campers are age-matched into groups of four to six children. Our curriculum addresses social skills that are critical for children's success in school, at play and within the community.
Our camp leaders closely supervise each camper's progress through the program. Our small group environment allows for maximum one-to-one instruction.
Camp topics include:
- Greetings & Introductions
- Establishing & Maintaining Friendships
- Conversation With Peers
- Feelings & Emotions
- Conflict Management
- Meal-time Behavior & Conversation
- Emergency Situations
- Using the Telephone
- Community Living Skills (Topics may vary depending upon the age of the participants.)

We are proud to report that our original program has helped our clients in their everyday lives! We could not have asked for more! One parent reports:
"Before Ethan started CAMP CHATTERBOX! he lacked some necessary social skills. Since enrolling in camp he has learned to take turns in a conversation. He now looks at and listens to the person he is talking with. He makes jokes and can initiate conversation! This camp has been such a positive experience for him!" (Sarah, Mother of Ethan, age 6, PDD) Contact us for more details and to reserve your child’s place in our camp!
