This includes staff training on LGBTQIA+ issues, adopting inclusive language in all camp communications, and offering support systems for LGBTQIA+ campers, families, and staff. 

Camps can highlight this commitment through activities that celebrate diversity, support groups, and ensure policies protect against discrimination. By doing so, camps not only support the well-being of LGBTQIA+ individuals but also cultivate an atmosphere of acceptance and understanding among all campers.
