Sometimes ICCP participants encounter serious problems at camp. We request that you give your camp a chance and not give up. Try to talk over and work through any problems for at least two weeks (the first two weeks are the most difficult) because most problems are identified and settlements made during that period. ICCP will talk to both you and your camp director before any changes are made. It is very difficult and sometimes impossible to move a participant to another camp. ICCP participants are responsible for transportation back to New York City and to the new camp, as well as meals and lodging between the time they leave camp and are placed in a new camp.

Should you return home (or leave camp) before the end of the camp season due to personal reasons or termination by your director, you will be responsible for any expenses involved, including full or partial round-trip flight cost and the amount of the program fee to ICCP for which the camp will no longer be responsible.

Most ICCP participants have a very successful summer. Very few, in fact, have the kind of problems described above. However, we don’t want you to become one of the few who does have to leave camp before the end of the summer, so spend a few moments thinking about what it will mean to be an  employee at a camp.

If I smoke, can I live for a summer in an environment where smoking is not permitted?

If I am accustomed to drinking alcoholic beverages, can I live in an environment where alcohol is not permitted?.
