Camp Ramapo, our summer residential program, is an inclusive environment purposefully designed for children having difficulty building and maintaining healthy relationships with peers and adults. The daily program and activities are carefully structured to meet the needs of children who can benefit from a higher-than-average level of supervision, an engaging environment, and a character-building curriculum; all of which Ramapo provides.

A particular strength of Ramapo is its one-to-one staff-to-child ratio. The atmosphere is warm and supportive; all activities are carefully supervised; and the grounds are attractive and well cared for.
