Do you know of any summer camps in Orange County, California for 7 yr old boy with ADHD?

My son has a one-on-one aid at school to help him manage his emotions and behavior when upset. These reactions can range in intensity, but he tends to need help calming down most days. I don’t think he would do well at a regular summer camp without support. My wife and I are at a loss, bc he doesn’t do well being home all day - but we don’t want to send him to a camp that is not good fit for him.

Check out Camp James in Newport. The staff is highly qualified. I also recommend anything in nature. My kiddo has less issues whwn he is outdoors/ exploring etc. We have done bodyboarding camp in CDM, surf camp, and nature camps with great success.
