Indian Trails Camp: Through summer camps, respites, and day camps, Indian Trails Camp brings adaptive recreation to campers in a safe, barrier-free environment. Camp allows individuals with disabilities to participate in a wide range of activities, including ropes challenges, arts and crafts, swimming, canoeing, archery, music, drama, dances, hiking, talent shows, nature studies, and more. Campers experience empowering fun and friendship while families and caregivers are afforded some much-needed rest. What’s not to love?

Supported Employment: This program aims to help individuals with disabilities find gainful employment in the community. Through assistance with job creation, interviewing techniques, and social workplace skills, IKUS empowers clients to increase their independence and economic self-sufficiency. While some training takes place at Indian Trails Camp, most of the program involves hands-on experiences at various community workforce settings.

Skill Building: IKUS offers a community integrated skill building program that can be customized to fit each client’s needs. Working from the goals in an individual’s Person-Centered Plan, we assist clients in maintaining and increasing their independence and economic self-sufficiency. Through preferred activities, sensory exercises, interactions with preferred individuals, taking breaks from stimulating environments, and close cooperation with parents and guardians, IKUS helps clients develop vocational, safety, leisure, relationship, and leadership skills that will increase their independence and enrich their lives.
