jCamp Sunshine has offered camp experiences to individuals with intellectual disabilities since 1983. Our mission is "to offer experiences that model and nurture a culture of grace, inclusion, and joy, through which people with or without disabilities can transcend barriers and value both their own gifts and talents of others."
