Brianna Elizondo Testimonial

The introduction of the FIRST Access robotics program had a meaningful and lasting impact on Camp CAMP, a year-round camp dedicated to serving campers with disabilities. This marked the first time Camp CAMP had ever welcomed a robotics and coding program, and it provided campers with an accessible, hands on opportunity to explore STEM through LEGO robotics and a structured, step-by-step approach. Campers were able to build confidence, practice problem-solving, and experience success at their own pace while collaborating with peers in a supportive environment.

Bringing FIRST Access to Camp CAMP required patience, adaptability, and a willingness to learn new technical skills to meet the diverse needs of campers. Through thoughtful preparation and flexible implementation, the program was successfully integrated into camp programming and quickly became a positive and engaging experience for campers. Its success demonstrated that innovative STEM programs can thrive in inclusive camp settings, reinforcing Camp CAMP’s mission of creating empowering opportunities for individuals of all abilities.
