Brain Camp Yng is a program for children and teenagers aged 6 to 16 who have acquired a brain injury, along with one of their parents or caregivers. Over the course of a week filled with engaging activities, families come together to share experiences, build confidence, and develop strategies for navigating a new reality.

For many, an acquired brain injury can be an invisible challenge, yet it profoundly impacts both the child and their family. Daily life may change drastically, requiring new ways to cope, adapt, and rediscover joy in everyday activities.

Some children and teenagers struggle to reconnect with an active and meaningful life, while others find social interactions difficult and need extra support to regain confidence and establish a new normal based on their individual abilities.

Brain Camp Yng follows the principles of Active Rehabilitation, where participation, peer support, and physical activity play a central role. Through adapted activities, children are encouraged to challenge themselves, experience mastery, and rediscover the joy of movement and participation.

At the same time, parents and caregivers receive valuable support and guidance. The camp serves as an important meeting place where parents can connect with others in similar situations, share experiences, exchange knowledge, and build a strong support network. Many families find that these connections become an essential source of understanding, encouragement, and long-term support even after the camp ends.

The combination of peer mentorship, professional guidance, and structured activities creates a setting where both children and parents can gain new perspectives, explore opportunities, and rebuild a sense of hope.

For many participants, attending Brain Camp Yng becomes a turning point—a moment when they start to see possibilities instead of limitations, gain confidence in their abilities, and take the first steps toward a more active and fulfilling life.
