Talisman Camps provide specialized camp experiences for young people ages 6 to 22 with autism spectrum disorders, ADHD and/or other learning differences. Since 1980, their ACA-accredited ADHD, autism and Aspergers summer camp programs have been delivering unique alternatives to ordinary summer camps. Their progressive adventure programs help their campers build success while increasing social skills, a sense of personal responsibility, confidence, and a more positive self-image.
A typical day may include enjoying a wholesome home-cooked breakfast, engaging in peer group activities, completing a nature walk in the beautiful North Carolina mountains, jumping off an inflatable into the camp lake, kayaking down gorgeous local rivers, having a conversation with a peer who understands your world, laughing with friends around a campfire, pitching in to clean up after evening meal, feeling pride when my bunkmates and I win a camp contest, or enjoying some of the most restful sleep after a long day of activities in the fresh mountain air.
