The Chicago Zoological Society is accredited by the American Camp Association, the only accreditation
organization for camps in North America. The Association is recognized for its standards for camp health,
safety, and programming. The organization partners with the American Red Cross and the American Academy
of Pediatrics to ensure that camp practices are current and high quality. We believe in inclusion and welcome
campers of all abilities. As of 2013, only 7% of ACA-accredited camps provide an inclusive setting that allows
participants with and without disabilities to enjoy the experience together. We are proud to be one of them.
