Cassidy had never been away from home before Easter Seals. She never had the opportunity to go to any other regular overnight camps – camps for children without disabilities.
We had a lot of barriers getting into regular camps. We thought Cassidy would never have a camp experience, something I think is so important for any child growing up. One of my favourite memories is picking Cassidy up at the end of her first week and she looked like she hadn't showered in a week, but she had! She looked like any other child returning home from a week away at camp.
These camps for our children are life changing. It teachers them kindness, compassion, support of one another and not to be afraid. To be able to go out in the world and be themselves. Nobody places any expectations on them and they just shine. It's those experiences that come home and shape them, giving them tools to help them with their day to day life challenges." ~ Gina, Cassidy's mother
