Why Adventure Camp?

Serving families across the nation and internationally, Blue Compass helps teens with High-Functioning Autism, Asperger’s and ADHD learn to face some of their greatest challenges in a fun, adventurous and safe environment. Our summer camp programs provide an invaluable experience in which teens grow socially and emotionally through guided wilderness adventure that involves working effectively as a member, and sometimes the leader of a team, accomplishing a challenging common goal. Blue Compass believes that overcoming challenges builds self-confidence. When teens with Autism, Asperger’s and ADHD lead themselves and others through an adventure, they establish an important sense of confidence and self-efficacy, perhaps for the first time.
