Rockbrook is accredited by the American Camp Association.
What is an accredited camp?
To receive accreditation, a camp must agree to operate by meeting or exceeding nearly 300 industry standards for summer camps. Camping professionals around the country have established these standards based on long standing best practices. As an ACA accredited camp, Rockbrook also undergoes a regular, on-site review of its operations, health and safety practices, hiring procedures, and program design.
The American Camp Association puts it like this.
As a leading authority in youth development, the ACA works to preserve, promote, and improve the camp experience. Our association is committed to helping our members and all camps provide:
- Camp communities committed to a safe, nurturing environment
- Caring, competent adult role models
- Healthy, developmentally-appropriate experiences
- Service to the community and the natural world
- Opportunities for leadership and personal growth
- Discovery, experiential education, and learning opportunities
- Excellence and continuous self-improvement
Only 20% of camps in America meet the standards for accreditation by the ACA.
Only American Camp Association accredited camps can display the ACA logo.
