 Respite Care for Family
By providing these programs to campers, we are giving parents,
guardians, and caregivers the opportunity for a respite from the
immediate responsibility of daily care for a child with a
disability. They have the opportunity to spend time with a spouse,
with other children or with friends. They can relax, free from some
of life’s daily stresses and perhaps recreate, shop or even
vacation. Dream Oaks Camp is located a few short miles from the
Florida Gulfcoast and its’ sandy beaches and a few hours from the
theme parks of Orlando. Parents and family members can relax,
knowing that their child is receiving quality care and attention.
