According to the Mental Health Commission of ​Canada, 70% of persons living with a mental illness ​see their symptoms begin before age 18. As many ​as 3 in 4 children and youth with mental health ​challenges and illnesses do not access services and ​treatments.

From our own experiences with children, we believe ​that smartphone and social media use has the ​potential to be harmful to young minds when not ​utilized carefully. Digital technology can have an ​negative impact on young peoples ability spending ​time in nature, time playing and less in person ​interactions, which are vital skills for development.

...We believe that summer camp can help!
