#### Grantee Spotlight: Rising Treetops at Oakhurst
The mission of Rising Treetops is to enhance the quality of life for children and adults with special needs, including autism and physical and intellectual disabilities, and provide respite for their families through a year-round camp experience, based in Monmouth County, NJ.
While at a [**camp**](https://risingtreetops.org/rising-treetops-services/summer_camp/) or [**respite session**](https://risingtreetops.org/rising-treetops-services/overnight_respite/) at Rising Treetops, clients enjoy daily activities including arts & crafts, music, drama, iPad-based learning, swimming, sports, cooking and gardening/nature. All our respite services and summer camp programs are designed to engage our clients and improve their skills. Clients have fun, inspire each other, have new experiences, make new friendships, and experience a heightened sense of independence.
For those with special needs, Rising Treetops is a safe haven that nurtures growth, inspires confidence and celebrates joy.
