20/20 Vision—Our Preferred Future

A Commitment to Serve
20 Million Children by the Year 2020

A Robust Vision Critical to the Future
What is ACA’s 20/20 Vision?
We must advocate for children, youth, and families. Yes, we are camp professionals, but even more importantly, we are advocates for quality, developmental experiences for children, youth, and families.
The Strength of Many Voices: Children, Youth, and Families Need to Hear Yours, by Peg Smith
Today, ACA is possibly facing the most critical need in its history to facilitate a powerful transformation.

The Power of the Experience, by Peg Smith
Those who have experienced camp first-hand or observed the benefits that camp provides others, more often than not, describe the experience as "life saving."
