Where Everyone Really is One
Camp HERO (Here Everyone Really is One) was founded on the belief that every child deserves a camp experience without communication barriers. Each summer, 35–65 children and teens who are deaf or hard of hearing come together for a week of adventure, friendship, and fun at Camp Victory in Millville, PA. Our campers enjoy all the classic camp activities of swimming, climbing, crafts, campfires, while connecting in a community that celebrates all forms of communication.
Every year, 15–25 amazing counselors join our campers for this immersive, activity-filled overnight experience. Camp HERO is guided by a dedicated board of directors with experience working with Deaf and hard-of-hearing individuals. Our Camp Director oversees day-to-day operations, supported by an on-site Camp Nurse and certified sign language interpreters are available 24/7 to ensure everyone feels safe, supported, and included.
