At UCLA UniCamp, we believe that everyone is welcome. We strive to create spaces where participants feel that they truly belong and are celebrated as individuals. Childhood and adolescence are important times of identity development, so we encourage participants to explore who they are and to celebrate the diverse identities of the entire community — at camp and at home.
We are committed to making accommodations for participants whenever possible by working with participants and their families to understand their needs and ensure they can have a safe, positive experience. We must be realistic with our capacity though, so we may not be able to reasonably accommodate participants who we cannot safely care for or who may pose a safety risk to other participants.
We strive for participants to feel safe and supported in every part of the UniCamp experience, including in cabins, in restrooms, at meals, and at activities. This includes respecting each participant’s name, pronouns, and gender identity.
UniCamp does not ask about the citizenship or immigration status of participants, nor do we collect documents that could be used to determine that status. We do not comply with requests or searches from immigration enforcement officials unless legally required by a subpoena or court order.
UniCamp does not discriminate based on:
- Race, ethnicity, color, or national origin
- Religion
- Sex, gender identity, gender expression, or sexual orientation
- Mental or physical disabilities or differences
- Age
- Marital status, family/parental status
- Income derived from public assistance programs
- Political beliefs
- Reprisal or retaliation for prior civil rights activity
Our approach is informed by child development research and best practices, and is grounded in our values of community, leadership, and service.
UCLA UniCamp is an equal opportunity provider.
