Narrative

Daybreak and Adventure Camps are on pause for 2025. You can apply for CCAccess Camperships for summer 2025. 

Cambridge Camping's CCAccess scholarship program makes unforgettable camp experiences accessible to all, offering day and overnight options across Massachusetts and New England. Tuition rates are negotiated to meet families' needs, and we're always expanding our network. Cambridge Camping partners with a wide variety of up to 60 day and overnight camps, and new camps are added throughout the year.

Daybreak Day Camp, founded in 1990, is a five week summer program for children whose considerable emotional and behavioral problems prevent their enrollment in typical camp programs. Daybreak provides engaging, varied, and rich activities in an informed, supportive, and accepting environment. Campers develop self-esteem by practicing social skills and coping methods that increase their confidence in engaging with peers and trying new things. Traditional activities offered are swim lessons, arts and crafts, sports, hiking, canoeing, and field trips are provided to 32 campers, ages 5 to 11.  Daily camp transportation and meals are included.
