Resources for Funding
The League Camping & Therapeutic Recreation recognizes that campers and their families may sometimes need assistance in finding funding for camp. While Camping & Therapeutic Recreation does not provide any respite or LISS program funds, our goal is to assist families to get in touch with various organizations that can help with offsetting their out of pocket expenses for camp. The organizations and numbers listed below are for your reference.
Please remember that each state is different and the resources listed below are specifically for Maryland residents. Please pay attention to the counties served by each organization. For more information, visit the Developmental Disabilities Administration website. (www.ddamaryland.org)
