Summer Camp
& Childcare
For ADHD Children
What Makes us Unique
The Summer Camp is a wonderful blend of fun outdoor activities and sports interwoven into the most advanced and effective treatment available for children facing the challenges of ADHD. For more than three decades, Dr. William Pelham has researched and refined this summer camp...his summer treatment program (STP) for success with ADHD children. The program's behavioral intervention is the underlying structure of all services Thrive offers. The STP has been recognized by Divisions 53 and 37 of the APA (American Psychological Association) and by CHADD (Children and Adults with Attention Deficit Disorder) as a model program, is listed on the SAMHSA NREPP (National Registry of Evidence-based Programs) list, and is widely recognized as the state of the art in treatment for children and adolescents with Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder by the NIMH, USOE, NICHD, AAP, AACAP, APA, NIDA, CDC and others. To Parents, this means you are finally accessing what works from the research other than just medication.
