Inspire Creativity and a Love for Learning

The Importance of Research Camps

Research camps provide free services to children and families who many not typically participate in research. Together, we are strengthening the quality of research while fostering trust, awareness and long-term collaboration with between Boys Town Hospital and the communities it serves.

Please check back in April for summer camp registration.

“My daughters had a wonderful experience at the week-long Boys Town Hospital summer camp. While they enjoyed participating in the hearing and language research studies, they were equally excited about the engaging activities offered each day. The fact that they looked forward to attending camp rather than staying home during summer break speaks volumes about how fun, meaningful, and enriching the program was.”
