ASD Oregon

Camp Odakoda was created in 2010 to support children with high functioning autism spectrum disorders and asperger’s syndrome. Our mission is to facilitate the same kind of summer-camp that most children enjoy – with the added support, encouragement and expertise that we’ve specifically designed for children with these special needs. We offer a 4 night sleep away experience for boys and girls aged 10-18 years who have Asperger’s Syndrome, or High Functioning Autism. Our program is centered around promoting social skill development in a fun and exciting way. We have a 2 campers to 1 adult counselor ratio. Our Camp offers our campers: • Safe, fun, friendly environment to learn and enhance social skills • Opportunity to meet and make new friends with the same challenges as each other • Opportunity to share and enjoy area’s of interest with others Counselors and camp staff will work with our campers on: • Social skills • Friendship skills • Compromising skills • Perspective taking • Building confidence and self esteem • Providing core skills to use in school and with others once camp is over • Opportunities to engage in group activities and non-competitive games
