Summer Camp Programs for Children and Adults with Disabilities

For more than 60 years, the Achievement Centers for Children has recognized the importance of recreation for children and adults with a variety of disabilities.

We are a leader in developing outdoor summer experiences which encourage both children and adults to develop their confidence, independence, and self-esteem while having a wonderful summer! All of our programs encourage inclusion by inviting children with and without disabilities to join in the fun.

We offer residential/weekend, day camp and therapeutic riding programs at the Achievement Centers for Children's Camp Cheerful in Strongsville.

The Achievement Centers for Children’s recreational programs at Camp Cheerful boast a diverse professional staff led by a Director of Recreational Services who has a M.B.A. and over 11 years of experience supervising recreational programs for children with special needs.

Camp Cheerful is one of the only camps in Ohio with a master’s level Licensed Independent Social Worker who also has 10 years experience working in a camp setting.
