This is the time to find a summer camp for your child and be sure he's enrolled. We talked with a camp director about what a parent can do to find the right summer camp.

My son had hands-down the most life-altering positive experience at Talisman Summer Camp in North Carolina. They specialize in kids with ADD, ADHD, Learning Disorders, and high-functioning Autism Spectrum Disorder/Aspergers. We don’t live nearby, but after doing lots of research, speaking with other moms, and talking with their incredible admissions director, we took a leap of faith. We arent the only ones who love it, parents from all over the country and world send their young children, teens, and young-adult kids there! It was incredible. It wasn’t just a learning experience for my son, but for myself and extended family -- they have an all-day seminar for parents/family just before pickup! They review what your child learned, what worked well for them and didn’t and WHY and discuss strategies for success and the latest news in ADD/ADHD/ASD, too. It is incredible! My son has attended four sessions, and it greatly assisted him in transitioning from Elementary to Middle School.

Please note: I have no affiliation with this camp. I just passionately love all that they do and continue to do for our incredible kids. I know it may sound like I’m over-the-top, but I cannot stress how much I admire the people that run Talisman and appreciate the impact they’ve made on our son’s (and family’s) life!
