Our Commitment to Community

At Hiram House Camp, we believe diversity, equity, and inclusion are at the heart of a flourishing camp experience. We strive to create an inclusive community where youth and adults of all backgrounds, beliefs, and identities are valued and engaged.

Inclusive Housing & Privacy

Trans and gender-diverse campers are welcome in any cabin. While we maintain “girls” and “boys” cabin designations, all are inclusive of trans and nonbinary campers:

  • The Girls Side: Welcomes cisgender girls, trans girls, trans boys, and nonbinary campers.
  • The Boys Side: Welcomes cisgender boys, trans girls, trans boys, and nonbinary campers.

Privacy Policy: To protect all campers, families are not notified of the names, medical histories, or personal information of their child’s cabin mates or counselors before, during, or after their session.

Facilities & Self-Expression

All cabins feature lockable bathroom stalls and private curtains for showers and changing; public nudity is strictly prohibited. Gender-inclusive bathrooms are also available across campus.

We believe there is no “right way” to be a boy or a girl. Campers are encouraged to wear what makes them comfortable and will always be addressed by the names and pronouns they use for themselves.

Professional Supervision

Our staff is assigned to groups based on gender identity and undergoes thorough background checks. Training includes intensive sessions on child sexual abuse prevention, bullying response, and age-appropriate inclusive communication.

Common Questions

Will these policies change my child’s experience?

Not at all. Creating a tight-knit, supportive community remains our cornerstone. We celebrate all identities as we always have.

Are these standard policies?

Yes. Hiram House is accredited by the American Camp Association (ACA), which sets health and safety standards for over 2,400 camps and provides specific guidance for gender-diverse inclusion.
