"Camp Amicus is wonderful. Days are scheduled so kids know what to expect. Counsellors are trained, caring, fun, and knowledgeable about ADHD, Autism, and neurodiversity. Because counsellors get training, they are equipped to handle challenging situations. There's a welcoming and organized vibe at Amicus, which helps kids feel safe. There are rules too, which help with respect going both ways. My kid has attended various camps at Amicus for 5 years, and there has never been a day he did not want to go."
