A personal growth camp is one where the values of self awareness and growth are taught. The goal of this kind of camp is to empower kids with the necessary tools in order to be happy and successful in life. The activities are designed in such a way as to help develop leadership, communication skills, friendship, teamwork and self confidence. This camp offers an environment where campers can get to honestly talk about the problems they're going through, which among other benefits, also leads to the development of deep bonds with their peers and counselors. Generally, kids are grouped in different age categories to better address specific issues and important values per group. Though available for kids age 12 and under, they are most popular with teenagers and their parents, as teens are perceived to need and benefit the most from what this kind of personal growth program has to offer.

Special Counselor Considerations: Many personal growth camps were founded, or attended to, by behavioral psychologists, professionals who are qualified to listen and counsel.

Medical Considerations: Parents of children who may have deeper-seated issues, such as anger management or violent tendencies, may want to research on more focused personal growth programs specifically designed to address these issues.
