Camp St .Vincent (CSV) is a free, all-inclusive, eight-week summer camp located in Patterson Park in Southeast Baltimore and operates Monday-Friday from 8:30 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. CSV provides a fun, supervised environment with academic, therapeutic, enrichment programming for children, age(s) 5-12 from homeless families from Baltimore City and Baltimore County.
All children are eligible for free daily bus transportation from our designated pick-up sites. All camp activities, supplies, daily breakfast and lunch, backpacks, and t-shirts are free to campers.
Camp St. Vincent’s program is specifically designed to address the impact of homelessness on academic, social, and emotional development with a structured reading and math curriculum, social skills groups, and cultural enrichment activities.
Within the safety and support of a therapeutic setting, children develop positive trusting relationships with adults that assist them in maintaining grade-appropriate academic performance, developing social competence and problem solving skills, strengthening autonomy, and gaining a sense of purpose.
