Dedicated to the Sibling Connection Initiative,
Reuniting Siblings Placed in Separate Foster Homes or Other Out-of-Home Care...

There are almost 600,000 youth in foster care in the
U.S., with 75% separated from at least one sibling when placed in care.  Add to that the numbers from other countries including youth separated by adoption and kinship care, and we have countless brothers and sisters grieving their birthright, their sibling.

CTB is not about finding a brother or sister. It is about reuniting siblings that may live in the same town, maybe even go to the same school, but live in separate homes.

WHO WE ARE

CAMP TO BELONG, (CTB), an international non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization, has been actively reuniting brothers and sisters placed in separate foster, adoptive or kinship homes through Summer Camp Programs and year round events since 1995. 

Siblings may not have the opportunity to read bedtime stories together at night, have breakfast together, cheer for each other at school functions or share precious holidays – all the things that typical siblings get to do each day. Siblings are often taken for granted. Yet, the sibling relationship can be our longest relationship in life.

Our primary goal is to provide a sense of belonging to youth as individuals, and as siblings, giving them opportunities to share childhood memories together and among other youth in the same situations.  Learn more about Camp to Belong.

WHAT WE DO

Our flagship events are our Summer Camp Programs during which we reunite brothers and sisters in a safe, neutral, week-long camp environment to create childhood memories together that they would not have otherwise due to living in separate homes. 

Signature Programs
Each Summer Camp Program provides intentional programming designed to strengthen sibling connection through our Signature Programs, including the Art Therapy, Sibling Enhancement, Life Seminar and Mentoring Programs, and the Birthday Party Event. Learn more about Events at CTB.
