The Robert Matthew Klein Fund for Inclusion and Special Needs Supports Beth El Day Camp’s Initiative to Nurture the Mental, Emotional, and Social Health (MESH) Needs of the Camp Community
With gratitude to the Robert Matthew Klein Fund for Inclusion and Special Needs, Beth El Day Camp is proud to provide a social worker on staff this summer, to nurture the social and emotional needs of staff, campers, and their families alike.
In the wake of COVID-19, campers and staff have struggled to adjust to many of life’s changes. According to Tom Rosenberg, CEO of the American Camp Association, COVID-19 has caused delays in campers’ emotional and social development. As camp provides an informal learning experience, children’s needs will be supported and therefore, better prepared for the more formal school expectations that await them in the fall. This follows through to our teen and adult faculty, who have been hit by the COVID-19 pandemic, both socially and emotionally.
Beth El Day Camp is thrilled to announce that Suzie Marder, LCSW, will be joining our staff to offer MESH – Mental, Emotional, and Social Health support, giving our children the opportunity to make significant, meaningful experiences. Suzie Marder is a Licensed Clinical Social Worker, who has 25 years experience as a social-emotional leader in school, camp and synagogue settings.
Suzie Marder will be an essential component of the camp experience. Through the generosity of the Klein family, Suzie will share her knowledge and expertise to offer resources and strategies that will enhance the summer experience for both children and staff. A social worker on staff will make a positive difference and Suzie will be a real “superhero” in the Beth El Day Camp community!
