Kinark Outdoor Centre (KOC)
- Camp
KOC operates a three-season camping facility with a mandate to deliver a variety of enhanced respite programs for children and youth with autism and their families. Everyone needs a break. Families need to be able to give themselves permission to change up their environments and/or seek support and rest. Plan a break with us.
Our program is about you and your family. We create the environment where you/your kids/your family will feel safe enough to be wholly yourselves and have fun.
