Summer Camp at BrightSteps is more than a program, it is a time for growth, confidence, and real-world learning. Through hands-on experiences, community-based instruction, and skill-building activities, participants develop independence, social connection, and vocational skills that support long-term success.

However, financial barriers prevent many families from accessing these opportunities.

The Bright Summers Campaign, led by the BrightSteps Foundation, raises funds to provide summer camp tuition scholarships to BrightSteps Summer Camps so income never determines who can participate.

WHY YOUR SUPPORT MATTERS: Many teens and young adults with disabilities experience limited access to inclusive summer opportunities that support independence and real-life skill development. BrightSteps Summer Camp provides structured, supportive experiences where participants practice communication, community skills, and workplace readiness in meaningful ways.

Your donation helps ensure every learner has the opportunity to grow, belong, and thrive this summer.
