Camp Connection

Camp Connection unites foster and adoptive families. Many parents arrive at camp in "survival mode" because their child's oppositional and manipulative behavior successfully keeps the child, rather than the parents, in control. Children affected by Reactive Attachment Disorder feel threatened by parental love and authority because they have been hurt in the past. They push away, which often causes divisions and misunderstandings between the parents. The serene redwood forest, parent training seminars, therapeutically trained volunteers and family bonding exercises help develop a healthy parenting paradigm that by the end of the week families say has made a significant difference in their family's dynamics.

"My daughter and I gained a more secure sense of connection, I learned skills to prevent her from undermining my love and she learned skills that allow her to let my love in." Fost-Adopt Mom
