Summer Camps 2023

You might be thinking it’s too early to talk about summer camps, but enrollment is happening now! Summer camps for deaf youth are often hard to find or have limited capacity, but the impact of these programs on their development is astronomical. Whether you are a parent, guardian, or educator seeking programs for your youth or are a program developer, NDC (National Deaf Center) has some amazing resources for you!

Feel free to add or look at the current listing – https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/179g99FqaPHUStoAZCQOhSvBzkhjUEZIWD9p6ZhbqkRA/edit#gid=1602613237.
