At Camp For All, we continue to reshape and transform the world for our campers with special needs, disabilities and challenging illnesses by proving the impossible is possible! We pride ourselves in developing and implementing program activities that any individual can participate in to ensure each camper is given an equal opportunity. Program Instructors carry out the Camp For All mission by encouraging campers to try new things, think outside of the box, and offer them a sense of freedom. If you find inspiration in facilitating intentional programming and creating memorable experiences for our campers and their families, this will be a great fit for you! The Fall 2026 season begins with an in-depth training to equip instructors to facilitate traditional camp activities in an inclusive, barrier-free way. Activities include climbing, zip line, giant swing, horseback riding, barnyard/nature, target sports, photography, epic evening programs and aquatics. The typical work week for instructors runs from Wednesday to Sunday.
