Take the Parent Pledge

“I commit to be an active partner in camp safety – before, during, and after summer camp season. I will ask questions, review safety policies, and share what I learn with other parents.”

Parents are the most influential and powerful advocates for children and their safety.

Together, we can ensure every child attending camp has a safe and fun experience.

The Parent Pledge is a powerful way for parents, community members, and advocates to demonstrate their commitment to fostering safe choices and open communication all summer long. When you sign the Parent Pledge, you join a collective group committed to a culture of safety that extends far beyond a single camp. You are joining a movement to strengthen nationwide camp safety, ensuring every child has a safe and fun experience.
