Camp Koby Sleepaway
Camps are fun filled camps for Israeli children
who have lost a parent or sibling to terror. This
six week summer experience is an intense and meaningful
opportunity for you to play a role in the recovery
and healing process of Camp Koby participants. |
During the camps, kids have a great
time and feel free to express their feelings both to
other children who experienced a similar loss and to
Israeli and American counselors like you who are trained
to really understand. In addition to regular activities,
therapeutic programs are offered to help the campers
cope with the trauma and other emotional issues associated
with their tragedy.
Before and throughout the programs, you will take part
in professionally designed training programs, as well
as learn about groundbreaking new initiatives used at
Camp Koby and other organizations that help children
and youth in crises. These programs include theoretical
and practical exposure to Animal Therapy, Holistic Therapy,
Extreme Sports Therapy, Art, Drama and Dance Therapy,
as well as visits to organizations such as Yad Sarah,
Beit Issie Shapiro, Mada and Zaka.

Programs. In these seminars you will learn to
