At Camp Fire Alaska, we know that stronger, more resilient families create stronger, more resilient youth. The need for family support increases with continuing uncertainties in the economy and extended deployments for military families. When Alaska’s families need out-of-school care and support, we’re here to help.
Our programs and services focus on three key areas:
Thrive(ology) — Inclusion and Diversity — Trained, Caring Staff
What does that all mean?
Thrive(ology) means discovering sparks, gaining self-confidence, and learning life-changing skills to thrive now. It is our researched-based program framework founded on the pillars of Social Emotional Learning (SEL), and it works.
Inclusion & Diversity means that any kid, from any kind of family, from any walk of life, is welcome at Camp Fire. We have an official Inclusion Policy and are outspoken about our long-time commitment to diversity.
Trained, Caring Staff means that we hire supportive mentors who are our “Spark Champions” because they are experts at what they do and know how to guide youth on their journey to thriving. To find out how we can support your child’s needs, please contact our Family Services Manager
