ACA Accreditation

 

Camp Gan Israel is an ACA-Accredited Camp.

 

The Value of ACA Accreditation:

• ACA accreditation verifies that a camp has complied with up to 300 standards for health, safety, and program quality, which are recognized by courts of law and government regulators.
   
• ACA-accreditation standards cover all aspects of camp operation from site/food service and health care to management and staffing.
   
• The American Camp Association collaborates with experts from The American Academy of Pediatrics, the American Red Cross, and other youth service agencies to assure that current practices at ACA-accredited camps reflect the most up-to-date, research-based standards in camp operation.
   
• Accreditation is a parent’s best evidence of a camp’s commitment to health and safety.
   
• ACA accreditation assures parents that the camp has had a regular, independent safety audit that goes beyond regulations in most states.
   
• Parents can (and should) verify the accreditation status of any camp at any time. This may be accomplished through ACA's Web site at www.acacamps.org (Click on Find A Camp!) or by calling 800-428-CAMP.
