who lives in a DREAM partner housing authority.
Our week-long camp is packed with adventure, fun, and new friendships, featuring activities like team sports, arts and crafts, outdoor exploration, and even exciting field trips. Campers get the chance to learn, grow, and create lasting memories in a supportive, nurturing environment led by caring and experienced counselors.
Our unique partnership approach brings campers from the same housing communities to camp together, fostering a sense of belonging and community spirit. If your housing authority is a DREAM partner, your child could be part of the best week of the year—full of laughter, learning, and new adventures!
Why we love
CAMP X
Tucked in the Berkshire Mountains, Camp X offers over 100 acres of recreation on a lakefront campground equipped with plenty of cabin and common space to host all of our activities.
This is an essential backdrop for s'mores around the campfire and gives us access to miles of private hiking trails and the critters that come with them. This is a great opportunity to put down our screens and enjoy the wonders of nature and some of the best stargazing around.
"Camp programs improve self esteem and help kids transition to school."
According to the National Institute of Health, attending a summer camp program helps improve social skills, form meaningful relationships with people of different ages, improve self esteem and the ability to self-advocate, and nurture important independence skills that can aid in educational transitions, such as entering kindergarten or moving to middle school.
That means summer camp is crucial in bridging the gap between low-income youth and their more affluent peers.
