Mission and programs · 2024

• CAMP HOPE: CAMP HOPE IS A SIX-DAY, OVERNIGHT CAMP THAT GIVES PRISONERS' CHILDREN WHO LIVE IN THE METRO-ATLANTA AREA A WEEK FILLED WITH LOVE, ACTIVITIES, AND FELLOWSHIP. THE PURPOSE IS TO DEVELOP AND FOSTER TRUSTING CHRISTIAN RELATIONSHIPS WITH CHILDREN OF INMATES BY ENGAGING THEM IN A FUN, WORSHIPFUL AND A SAFE ENVIRONMENT. THE LOWER CAMP, CALLED CORNERSTONE, IS OUR ENTRY POINT INTO THESE KIDS AND THEIR FAMILIES' LIVES, AND ONLY ACCEPTS FIRST-YEAR ATTENDEES AT THE 4TH OR 5TH GRADE LEVEL. ONCE CHILDREN ATTEND CAMP, WE WORK WITH THEM THROUGHOUT THEIR CHILDHOOD AND YOUTH TO CHANGE THE DIRECTION OF THEIR LIVES. WE OFFER ONGOING OPPORTUNITIES AT CAMP FOR ACCEPTING CHRIST AND FOR DEVELOPMENT OF SERVANT LEADERSHIP SKILLS. THE LEADERSHIP TRAINING ACADEMY (LTA) PORTION OF CAMP HOPE IS BY INVITATION FOR THOSE CAMPERS WHO SUCCESSFULLY COMPLETE CORNERSTONE AND CONSISTS OF RISING SEVENTH, EIGHTH AND NINTH GRADERS. LTA BUILDS ON THE FOUNDATION SET FORTH IN CORNERSTONE. THIS CAMP ENGAGES CORPORATE LEADERS, MOTIVATIONAL SPEAKERS, AND PROFESSIONAL ATHLETES TO SPEAK TO, WORK WITH AND ENCOURAGE OUR CAMPERS TO BECOME CHRISTIAN SERVANT LEADERS. LTA CAMPERS PARTICIPATE IN TEAM BUILDING EXERCISES TO REINFORCE THE LEADERSHIP TOPICS OF THE DAY. WHEN CAMPERS GRADUATE FROM LTA, THEY ARE ELIGIBLE TO SERVE AS TEEN COUNSELORS TO CAMPERS. THEY CAN ALSO PROGRESS TO CABIN LEADERS AND PAID SUMMER CAMP STAFF. THE CAMP AND OTHER PROGRAMS ARE NO-CHARGE TO CAMPERS AND CAMPER-TURNED-COUNSELORS.
