Jameson Camp enriches the lives of Indiana youth
by inspiring them to discover their strengths.

Jameson Camp serves any child who would benefit from a camping experience.

This could simply be a child in need of a week of fun or a child needing to improve social skills.  Jameson Camp is, however, equipped to work with children facing social, emotional, and behavioral challenges.
