Camp Overview
Jameson Camp is a year-round youth development agency. We are an independent nonprofit organization that has been serving underprivileged Indiana youth for nearly over 92 years. Our camp has built a solid reputation among parents, social service professionals, and schools as a valued and trusted partner in providing an enriching environment for at risk children. Many agencies refer children to us largely due to minor social, behavioral or emotional disorders. These children often would not have a camp experience otherwise.
Each year, 99-100% of our youth receive financial assistance. Over 46% have at least one special ability diagnosis.

Hmm... What's your role?
Staff Time Off
Staff are guaranteed every weekend off to go explore! We are less than three hours form Chicago, and only 15 minutes form downtown Indianapolis (a large city).
We are revitalizing our time-off for next summer, but staff can also expect to have 2 evenings off per week, and well as some shorter periods of daily time off.
Staff Qualities
We are looking for staff that are flexible, hardworking, and patient. Working with special needs and under-served youth is a challenge, but we provide professionals and all the support necessary to work with the kids. We are a super welcoming environment, and would love to see if you are a great fit!
We are looking for staff who are also willing to be trained in high ropes and lifeguarding for the summer.
