-Camp New Hope
Residential coed summer camp for children with a parent in prison
New Hope is an Oklahoma-based prison ministry for children who have a parent in prison. These children are seven times more likely to end up in prison themselves. Our mission is to empower these children and their families to create a healthy future in the hopes of ending the generational cycle of incarceration.
This camp offers creative education and life skills as children enjoy boating, fishing, swimming, arts and crafts, sports and chapel. Caregivers receive a much needed break. The camp is limited to 40 children so counselors can coach and mentor individual campers.
