In summer of 2018 and winter of 2018 I worked as a camp counselor at a camp for persons with special needs. Each counselor had 1-3 campers depending on the direct care each camper needed. The campers were mainly children but ranged in ages from 8-30. We rotated campers each week so I have a wide variety of experience.
