Stepping Forward Summer Camps are ideal for children and young adults ages four and up with mild to moderate learning, emotional, and behavioral difficulties.

Open to clients residing in New Jersey, Southern California, and worldwide.

Join us for a summer of sun, fun, and friends at our inclusive Summer C.A.M.P. (Clinically Advanced Multi-Modality Program). Our C.A.M.P. is designed by our staff to accomplish goals in environments where our clients can have the most fun. Our clients conquer fears, build confidence and self-esteem, and develop an enthusiasm for life while learning social and emotional skills.

Each summer program runs for 9-11 weeks where we ask our clients to commit to at least 3 consecutive weeks minimum for results.

Each camper has 7 objectives: 4 group goals and 3 individual goals. The campers are assessed on their performance on these 7 objectives throughout the three or four environments the individual engages in each day. The objectives can be but are not limited to, increasing impulse control, cooperating with peers, adapting to losing, concentrating or staying on task, sharing with others, and the art of conversation.

SFCC uses a behavioral program to replace ineffective, inappropriate behaviors with positive and effective behaviors. Because the camp environments are similar to the camper’s natural environments, it is very likely that the behaviors taught at SFCC will generalize to the individual’s natural settings (home, school, etc.).
