OUR VISION A PLACE WHERE ALL CHILDREN FEEL 
SAFE, HAPPY, AND EMPOWERED Foundation for Dreams, through our signature Dream Oaks Camp program, strives to create a place where children can recognize one another as individuals, not by their disabilities. Our overall vision is that all individuals with special needs have every opportunity to learn and grow, leading to more productive behaviors, meaningful relationships, and a more comprehensive profound skill set. Foundation for Dreams is the only organization in Southwest Florida that provides year-round weekend and summer residential camp sessions for all children with varying ability levels and chronic and/or terminal medical conditions.

An inclusive play space dedicated to supporting children of all abilities, especially those on the autism spectrum and with developmental differences.
