2 History In 1998 several funded therapeutic summer camp programs closed leaving many children with Mental Health diagnosis no organized recreational programs for the summer. Parents requested help in finding summer programs for their children. Many families could not afford summer camp. Families wanted their children to attend programs in their communities. Children needed more age appropriate, normal fun and activities, and less school like structure and treatment. We started by funding 12 children in 1998 and have grown to funding over 1400 children each summer. 2

3 General Guidelines Children who reside in Philadelphia and receive behavioral health services funded by DBHIDS are eligible. Children must be between the ages of 6 and 17 years old at the time of application submission. Camps that have been approved by DBHIDS are considered Participating Camps. The grant offers up to six hundred dollars ($600.00) per child to attend a participating recreation camp of the parent s choice. Participating camps have a program that is 75% recreational. Provider Agencies are required to visit camps during the summer. Applications are accepted starting March 15 through May 31, on a first come first served basis. 3
