Children and youth with high-functioning autism come here. We adapt our activities based on the participants' abilities, interests, and needs.

You will learn the camp's routines, working methods, and participate in preparations for the participants' arrival. You will live together with your colleagues in the associated staff accommodation. We work according to a rolling schedule where working hours primarily occur during the day and evening.

Your Skills and Experience

You find it easy to collaborate and are confident in yourself and in contact with new people. In this recruitment, we place great emphasis on the aforementioned skills, personal suitability, and commitment.
