Spring is about to blossom and so is our
first 2025 session of Camp B.L.U.E.!
Camp B.L.U.E. (Building. Learning. Understanding. Empowering.) is for kids ages 6 to 14 who have almost, or recently completed the Clinical Program at Alliance For Children. Camp B.L.U.E. is an opportunity for these kids and teens to regain some of the joys and simplicities of childhood, unclouded by trauma or abuse. Campers are treated to a week filled with fun activities, special guest speakers, games, and field trips to exciting places around the metroplex!

Clinical Spotlight
Our children and their protective families navigate some hard, heavy things through our Clinical Program. On their journey to healing, there can be many bumps in the road, including the barrier of getting to one of our locations for their free, weekly services, often times due to lack of finances to fill up their gas tanks. But when all is said and done, and our kids have completed our therapy program, there is much to celebrate!
Help our kids and their protective caregivers see the finish line by providing our Clinical team with some basic supplies. Shop the Amazon Wishlist below, or pickup a giftcard to Five Below or your local gas station to ensure every kid has a shot at healing and gets to celebrate overcoming their trauma.
| | | |
On our Donate page, you can specify for the donation to go towards Clinical Gas Cards and/or Five Below Gift Cards. | |
