Camp Atlantic Information

Camp Atlantic provides a living experience for each camper that is carefully designed around the beach community. The goal of the camp is to improve social confidence and independent living skills by living and socializing with peers under the guidance of experienced and dedicated group leaders. Whether it is a trip to the beach or a concert on the boardwalk, each activity is designed to create opportunities for positive social interaction. Camp Atlantic provides each camper the opportunity to improve his or her social skills, mature positively and develop an enhanced self-concept. Campers will gain a sense of security and learn how to be relaxed, outgoing and successful in a socially acceptable manner. Campers repeatedly tell us that they love camp. When asked, what makes it fun, very often they say everything but do not talk about specific activities. This, more than anything else, tells us that we are accomplishing our objective because it is the experience of the beach vacation that makes the vacation fun and that is how most people explain why they return to the beach year after year.
