Stand Up! Speak Out!® Summer Camp

A Fun Summer Camp that Fosters Empowerment, Creativity and Friendship Skills!

In this super fun camp, your child will learn skills to help maintain healthy friendships, use assertiveness with compassion, and approach challenges with confidence.  Activities include scavenger hunts, skits, planting succulents, exploring Descanso’s beautiful paths and waterfalls, and more. Campers will have fun, get creative, make new friends, enjoy nature, and learn important skills for life!

This summer, we’re thrilled to be partnering with Descanso Gardens – and offering both sessions of our Stand Up! Speak Out!® Summer Camp in Descanso’s beautiful Harvest Gardens!  The Harvest Gardens are a lush, private space filled with mature trees, raised beds for planting, outdoor education areas, and fruit trees we can harvest. We’re so excited to offer our friendship-oriented camp in this beautiful space!

Why do parents register their children for Stand Up! Speak Out!® Summer Camp?

Some parents are simply looking for a fun outdoor summer activity, some hope their children will build confidence and make new friends, and others are excited for them to learn how to manage big feelings, tackle challenges, and communicate more effectively.

We love to talk to parents and learn their stories, and then we to get to know their children even better during our week together. With Stand Up! Speak Out!®, we’ve designed a program to foster the skills our children need – confidence, camaraderie, creativity, and compassion. And we’ve made it super fun because that’s also what kids need. (Don’t we all, really?)

The most rewarding part is seeing the kids shine – laughing with new friends, using brave talk to share in front of the group, performing in skits, or tapping into their creative spirits making art projects.

Reach out to us with any questions!

We hope your child will join us!  Please contact Paige Hobey at PHobey@IFGD.care or at (626) 585-8075, ext. 121 with any questions. We’d love to chat with you about your child and share more details with you over the phone.
