Mindful Solutions for Mindful Camps
Mindful Camp Consulting provides professional guidance, resources, education, and support for summer camps and youth development organizations. We aim to take on the hard (but important!) projects, leaving you free to focus on growing your programs and supporting campers and staff.
Specialization includes policies, risk management, manuals, systems analysis, streamlining, and professional development.
Services
Staff Training & Workshops
Virtual and (limited) in-person training for seasonal or year-round staff, with a strong focus on supporting campers and staff using a nervous system lens. We can customize a training that meets your specific needs.
Policy & Staff Manual Development
Sign up for the “Brain, Body, and Behavior” webinar - a 6-week program that reframes behavior support and provides practical strategies for supporting kids with big behaviors. This is ideal for camp directors, supervisors, camper support staff, and front-line staff who work directly with kids.
Webinars
Let us do the boring stuff for you! Staff manuals, housing agreements, policy documents, emergency procedures, and more. We can provide document templates or, in consultation with you, write customized documents for your program.
