Staff Training

Besides being a former camp director, Nick Teich is also a social worker with a doctorate in social policy, for which he studied youth populations.

Nick believes that for the best possible outcomes, staff training should not be limited to just one orientation session, but that it should include ongoing coaching opportunities throughout the summer and the year.

Mental wellness in staff and campers - how to feel good at camp and get the job done
Teaching staff how to deal with difficult situations that might arise with campers
Getting staff to ask for, and get, the help they need so that they can be present at camp
