Signing up for Summer Day Camp:
We will need to do an intake process for new families that are not currently clients of Bridge to Care. This intake process will be done over the phone or in person at our Bridge to Care office with the Program Coordinator. The intake usually takes about 30 minutes to complete and the questions in the intake process go over everything we need to know about your child such as medication needed, allergies, diagnosis etc., as well as consent forms and the registration forms that need to be filled out and signed.(Registration form can be printed off and filled out beforehand or filled out online). During the intake process parents/guardians who have any questions can ask them at this time. Please keep in mind our staff during this camp is a 3:1 ratio with both trained support workers and also volunteers. There will be a behavioral assessment form to fill out as well. If your child has displayed recent behavior incidents in the past 2 months such as physical aggression, damaging property or themselves with the intent to do harm, AWOL, etc.. your child will be rated at a level 2 behavioral rating, and participation will be decided on a case-by-case basis for all Level 2 applicants.
