Life Camp

Empowering Independence, One Step at a Time

Life Camp at Camp Allen New Hampshire is a transformative five day experience specifically designed for young adults who are ready to grow, learn, and take meaningful steps toward independent living. Whether participants are just beginning their journey or building on existing life skills, Life Camp offers the tools and support to help them succeed.

This intimate program is limited to 12 campers, creating a close-knit environment where participants can collaborate and let their voices be heard. Throughout the session, participants build life skills, grow in self-awareness, and gain hands-on experience in everyday life situations.

As part of the experience, each camper receives an allowance (included in their tuition) to manage their own spending on meals, transportation, activities, and more during the week.

Campers will explore a variety of practical and empowering topics, including:

  • Healthy living

  • Job skills

  • Self advocacy

  • Money management

  • Cooperative living

  • Goal building

  • Cooking

Life Camp is a week filled with encouragement, personal growth and meaningful friendships. Campers leave with greater confidence and a renewed belief in what is possible.

Come be a part of something special and take the next step toward independence at Camp Allen NH!

“I look forward to Life Camp every year! I always learn new skills, visit new places, and leave feeling more confident and independent.” — Jackie, Life Camper
