As summer ends, another season of ADAMH summer camp investments has come and gone. Each year, ADAMH is proud to support camps across Franklin County that give kids safe spaces to learn, grow and build resilience. As the data shows, these camps do more than fill summer days — they strengthen well-being, which lasts long after the season ends.

ADAMH thanks the camp counselors and staff whose dedication and encouragement helped youth and young adults thrive this summer.
