What is Camp Attach?
Camp Attach is a week-long family camp that provides parents with tools, techniques, and support to help heal their children with Reactive Attachment Disorder (RAD). Children learn and practice new behaviour techniques, and spend time bonding with their parents. Healthy siblings who display Respectful, Responsible, and Fun to be around behaviour get to join a special Crew and spend the week in guided activities and games!
The camp staff spends the week teaching parents about trauma, RAD, and therapeutic parenting; helping children in the intervention room to work on behaviour interventions and learn new skills; and running family learning and bonding activities.
Key goals of camp include:
- Creating positive family memories
- Learning and using strategies developed using brain science and behaviour interventions
- Learning the keys to bonding and attachment
- Providing support for parents
- Providing after camp and follow-up care
