Financial Assistance
We offer YMCA program or membership scholarships to those that qualify. Scholarship applications are available at the Y and by visiting our Financial Assistance webpage. Contact Amy Witruk for questions about scholarships at amy@ccymca.net.
The Stephens Family YMCA is a Child Care Resource Service (CCRS) provider and will accept other third-party payments as well. For questions about CCRS please contact Kayla Carter at kayla@ccymca.net.
It is strongly recommended families apply for CCRS or scholarships as soon as they are able. A CCRS approval letter and/or scholarship approval is required before registering for camps in order for the assistance to be applied. Scholarships may take up to 2 weeks to process.
If a family has been approved for CCRS and a YMCA Scholarship, the CCRS will be applied to the payment first and then the scholarship percentage will be applied to the remaining balance.
Participants who have been approved for CCRS, Scholarships, or other third parties must register for camp with a Director in order for the financial assistance to be applied to camp deposits and payments.
Accommodations
Does your child need a 1-on-1 aid?
The Stephens Family with Larkin’s Place is dedicated to providing support to all children. We provide a wide range of inclusion support services, including adapted programming, modifications to existing programming, and 1:1 inclusion counselor support. If your child has a disability which may impact their ability to participate in a camp program, please read below for our guidelines.
If your child has never attended Larkin’s Place Camp before and needs a 1:1 aide for camp:
Please contact Alyssa Anderson before February 24th, 2025 to secure an inclusion counselor for your child. You will need to go through an evaluation meeting to determine the supports needed for your child. Once you have completed an evaluation meeting, our staff will provide assistance in registering for camps and support.
If your child has attended Larkin’s Place Camp before:
Please register for an “Inclusion Counselor for a child with a disability” for the weeks needed (link below). To ensure staffing, please complete this by February 24th, 2025. Once you have completed this, our staff will reach out to you to confirm the next steps of how to register for camp.
Inclusion Counselor Aid Registration
If your child does not need a 1-on-1 aid, but may need some accommodations due to a disability, please fill out the form on our Inclusion Form webpage.
If you have any questions during this process or need assistance, please reach out to the Larkin’s Place Director, Alyssa Anderson, at alyssa.anderson@ccymca.net
