Camp Barnabas Special Needs Camp, Missouri

Also featured on “Extreme Makeover Home Edition,” this camp gets rave reviews from families with special needs kids.

Camp Barnabas exists to offer childhood experiences to Nicky and many other children and young adults who have been robbed of them by disease or disability. For one week, these young people are able to shift their focus away from sterile medical environments and the language of their disability or illness to focus on activities that build their courage and expand their belief in themselves. Many people with special medical needs endure unthinkable pain and isolating treatments for diseases or disabilities such as cancer, hemophilia, spina bifida, muscular dystrophy, cystic fibrosis, cerebral palsy and AIDS. Their need for acceptance is overwhelming!

Tuition $600

Registration Fee $40

Camp Barnabas offers limited sponsorships to help offset this burden.
