    At Camp Arroyo, ENN offers a wide variety of activities allowing kids with special needs to just be kids. Camp Arroyo was built specifically for children with life-threatening and chronic illnesses and developmental disabilities, to give them the opportunity to have a blast in a fun, untroubled, safe environment, where they feel comfortable, happy, and secure. They’re exposed to new activities, games, and experiences, and usually end up amazing themselves by doing things they had no idea — or dared not imagine — they could do.

    About the Camp
    We began our camp program in 2002. The camps 
    accommodate up to 45 developmentally delayed youth, 
    age 6 - 22. The ratio of children to counselors is 1:1. 
    

    Camp is held at Camp Arroyo, a 138-acre parkland 
    outside Livermore, Ca. Camp Arroyo was created
    by The Taylor Family Foundation (www.ttff.org), 
    the East Bay Regional Park District (EBRPD), 
    and the YMCA of the East Bay.
