Our story
It started with one simple belief.
Everyone deserves the opportunity to belong.
Not someday.Not when it is convenient.
Today.
Kidd Camp Inc. was founded to create opportunities for individuals with intellectual and developmental disabilities to build friendships, develop life skills, discover meaningful employment, and become active participants in their communities.
What began as a vision is becoming a growing East Texas movement—bringing together families, volunteers, businesses, educators, and community leaders who believe inclusion creates stronger communities for everyone.
What we believe
Community becomes stronger when everyone has the chance to contribute.
Everyone deserves opportunity.
Opportunity changes lives.
Community changes everything.
No one succeeds alone.
Inclusion benefits everyone.
Service creates legacy.
Real impact is measured by the lives we change together.
What we do
We turn belonging into opportunity.
Our work connects personal growth with real community participation—because inclusion should be visible in workplaces, neighborhoods, friendships, and everyday life.
