Tikva Special Needs Programs
Since the first Tikvah program was established in 1970, the Ramah Camping Movement has provided a Jewish camping experience for special needs children. Ramah camps serve different age groups, and offer programs of varying lengths.
Ramah in New England offers inclusion bunks for special-needs and mainstream youngsters, stand-alone bunks, and a vocational training program for older children and adults. There are bunks with entrances that can accommodate motorized scooters, barrier-free bathrooms, and paved roads suitable for wheelchairs.
