  2. Why Heritage Camp? Four Days a Summer … … Impact for Life • Celebrate Adoption • Create Community • Connections for Life • Countless Resources The best part about Domestic Adoption Camp was our child’s interaction with other adopted kids and getting him comfortable with what it means to be adopted......it was all positive!

  4. Four Days That Change Our Lives Family-centered activities Enrich the family bond Lifelong relationships Building identity “My daughter feels part of a community -- it is a miracle what happens to the kids at camp.

Thank you thank you thank you.” HERITAGE CAMPS FOR ADOPTIVE FAMILIES – CELEBRATING ADOPTION AND CULTURE SINCE 1992

  5. The camps provide an environment for children and families to relish being part of a larger group “just like themselves.” Families develop an awareness of and sense of pride in their adopted child.  Benefits for Our Families “Camp was about letting our children (and our whole family) be a part of something, of finding a place of belonging, and being so supported by everyone (other kids, families, and those awesome counselors!)” HERITAGE CAMPS FOR ADOPTIVE FAMILIES – CELEBRATING ADOPTION AND CULTURE SINCE 1992
