At Camp Barnabas, we invite people with disabilities and chronic illnesses to experience a Christian summer camp built with them in mind. Our goal is to make sure everyone has the best week of their lives.
Our Campers are individuals ages 7 and up with a variety of diagnoses: developmental and physical disabilities, chronic illnesses, autism spectrum disorder, cancer, hemophilia, cerebral palsy, Down syndrome, cystic fibrosis, amputated limbs, atypically formed limbs, visual impairment, hearing impairment, spina bifida, and many other rare and debilitating diseases.
Every program and activity is adapted so each person, regardless of ability, can participate.
Each week is geared to a specific age range and a set of diagnoses so that each Camper is in a cabin with others similar to themselves—you're never too old for camp!
Campers are matched one-on-one with a volunteer Missionary so they can get the full support they need. The relationships built at camp will last a lifetime.
We have a full medical facility with nurses and doctors equipped to accommodate any medical needs our Campers may require.
Campers grow in their faith journey with daily devotionals, worship, and prayer.
