Our Program

Partner With Camps

Linclusion partners with established summer day camps to enhance inclusion programming within their current structure. 

We are THRILLED to announce a partnership with Ashland Recreation Center  for the summer of 2024!

Integrate Campers

At Linclusion, we have a robust intake process so  we get to know your camper, their strengths, challenges, and individual needs. 

This also helps us match the right aide with the camper.

Provide One-To-One Aides

At Linclusion, we have developed a comprehensive  process to carefully match campers with appropriate staff.  We pride ourselves on being able to individualize this process for both the camper and aide. 

Our Vision

To create a world where children of all abilities can learn, play, and grow together by breaking down barriers and fostering understanding and empathy.​ 

Our Story

Co-Founders Stephen and Jamie Marks are driven by their passion for establishing tailored services for children with disabilities. Their motivation is deeply personal, as their son Lincoln is non-verbal, diagnosed with autism and has significant developmental delays.  Most importantly, and what truly defines Lincoln is how healthy, amazing, happy, and lovable he is. The Marks family experienced the significant expense of additional (one-on-one) support for their son to attend a conventional camp, which not all families can afford. 

With extensive experience in camping, education, and nonprofits, they bring valuable expertise, business acumen, and personal understanding to Linclusion.

Our Mission

To facilitate the integration of children aged 3-15 with disabilities into existing summer camps, providing support (one-to-one aides) at NO COST to families.
