The American Camp Association (ACA) is the key to unlocking a future where all children thrive. ACA provides research, education, and training to promote safe and healthy camp experiences for all families.
Help families in their search to find the right summer camp for their child by adding or updating your camp's programs and sessions on ACA's Find a Camp search tool.
Help us provide evidence that camp matters — both to the economy and to the growth and development of current and future generations. All day and overnight camps, whether connected to ACA or not, are encouraged to participate.
Learn about our research, our evaluation tools and services, and research related to youth development and out-of-school time experiences, such as camp, conducted by a wide variety of scholars and experts.
Join us in New Orleans, LA, February 6-9, for the 2024 ACA National Conference. The conference theme is Empowering Camps to Create Quality Experiences.
