CampWell Level 2 Training
Creating a culture of wellbeing at camp
The CampWell training program aims to help all be well at camp and seeks to create consistent care across the spectrum of all summer learning spaces. Made by camp people, for camp, people, CampWell is an interactive, experiential, multi-day training program that equips camp leaders to build a culture of well-being across every layer of their community. It is designed to help program directors and leaders identify, understand, cultivate, and create a community of well-being at camp by shaping trainings and programs that incorporate the tools, self-awareness, and understanding needed to enhance the experience and safety for all. CampWell delivers immersive learning, actionable tools, and a multi-tiered framework that strengthens individual, communal, and organizational wellness. The course is a collaboration between the Alliance for Camp Health (ACH) and American Camp Association, New England.
Upon completion of the course, participants will have the content and resources necessary to incorporate CampWell into future staff trainings. Participants earn a CampWell Certification and receive four essential resources to level up staff training: the CampWell Level Two Curriculum (narrative form), CampWell Roadmap of cited sources, CampWell slide deck, and the ACH MESH (+) Resource Guide — a $200 value, all included with registration.
Who is this training for? CampWell is best suited for program directors and leaders who will incorporate the concepts, skills, and tools they learn into their camp’s staff training for frontline summer staff.

Why Send Two?
CampWell invites organizations to consider sending at least two individuals to maximize potential for impact. Investing in collaborative implementation not only demonstrates your organization's commitment to the CampWell principles, it increases knowledge retention, reduces single points of failure, and encourages collaborative problem-solving and broader acceptance of cultural change within your organization. Training more than one staff member improves the likelihood of maintaining and sustaining well-being practices if/when your program experiences changes in staffing.
**Note: while most ACA, New England pricing is based on individual membership status, registration pricing for CampWell is based on CAMP MEMBERSHIP STATUS. If your camp is ACA member, please register yourself as such**
