Giborim U Mission
Giborim U is a program for children, teens and adults with special needs. Its catalog includes courses in fitness, the arts, sports, recreation, life skills and health and wellness. Participants will enrich their lives socially and behaviorally while gaining independence and communication skills, as they forge genuine connections to each other and the community.
Background & History
The David Posnack JCC's premier special needs summer camp, Camp Giborim, serves over 150 children and adults between the ages of 3 and up, regardless of ethnicity, race, or faith.
The special needs population is experiencing a steady increase with a greater demand for a year-round program for youth and adults. The J, committed to working with this special population, developed Giborim U, a program offering enrichment classes from August through May; Sunday through Friday for both adults and youth.
