Respite Weekends
Respite Season
Respite Weekends are designed to offer a fun camping experience throughout the year, while also giving families and caregivers a break from caregiving responsibilities.
If your camper is interested in enjoying the Respite Season, please complete the application process on Camp Doc. After the Health profile & Medication portion are completely filled (and if there is a spot available), two weeks prior to a session, Camp New Hope will evaluate staff availability, and then the camper may be moved into the preferred week opening. Each session is $500.
