Opportunity Description:
At PALS, all of our participants with Down syndrome are paired one-to-one with a peer who does not have Down syndrome. Peers can apply to join PALS starting at high school age (approximately 15) and there is no cost for peers to join us at camp. Peers are full participants at PALS programs and serve as peer models for their partner and team. Peers participate in all activities and help model the PALS values by being welcoming, fun, genuine, supportive, and passionate. Any Peer who join us for a week at camp will earn 100 hours of community service as well!
