Sleep-away Camp and Overnight Respite are wonderful opportunities for people with intellectual and developmental disabilities to have an enjoyable summer vacation, or a weekend to escape the busy city and enjoy nature in beautiful towns in upstate New York. This also offers much needed opportunities for families to take a break from the responsibilities of caregiving.

The Overnight Respite program is a Medicaid Waiver Service offered for developmentally delayed children and youth ages 7-17 and authorized by the New York State Office of People with Developmental Disabilities. We provide a unique overnight program offered nine times each year on weekends and holidays. Our program combines 24-hour childcare with a camp setting. This allows our participants to experience outdoor activities during all the seasons of the year, while their families get the break they need. www.childrensaidnyc.org/programs/wagon-road-camp
