Camp Sequoia is an overnight summer camp for children ages 8-17 who need help with social skills. Located on the beautiful campus of the Hill School in Pottstown, PA (40 miles northwest of Philadelphia, PA) our innovative program utilizes Michelle Garcia Winner's Social Thinking framework to help campers build their social thinking skills through a traditional camp program. Camp Sequoia is filling an unmet need in the overnight camp market for children who do not need the level of support offered at special needs overnight camps yet need more than a traditional overnight camp can offer.

I sent my son to Camp Sequoia this past summer because I had heard that it was an excellent camp for boys that struggle with ADHD. I also wanted to be close to the camp, and because we live in Philly, it was just an hour away. Ever since we picked him up, we have seen lots of improvement in his thinking skills, his social skills and his overall behavior. They really worked with the kids to teach them a framework that they would be able to use in any situation, whether it is at school or in sports. I am really glad we sent him to Sequoia this summer.
