Testimonials

“Our child got to go to Camp Chloë and be fully immersed in a group of kids who are on a similar journey. She got very confident in presenting her pronouns in the group, challenged herself in many ways (both emotionally/socially and physically!) and came out of camp a more confident person. For several days after, she was lamenting that camp was only one week. We are really grateful to the thought and care that went into this very special camp.”
“Best camp experience ever! Such care and thought went into this week. The bonds that were made with the kids and with the counselors will continue for future years. To top it off amazing memories were created ”
“As parents, we can’t thank this team enough for the love and support my children were given at camp, and how much excitement they had each day knowing they were amongst other kids and counselors like them.”
