Safe Environment Policy

Tilden Summer Camp is dedicated to providing a safe educational environment for those who participate in its activities, especially all minors. It does not tolerate any sexual or physical abuse on the part of staff, volunteers, or participants, including behavior that is objectively intimidating, physically or verbally. Also, staff and volunteers do not provide any illegal substances to the students nor permit their use. Every adult staff or volunteer submits to a background check and commits to follow a set of behavioral guidelines (here). (You can view our policy for responding to allegations of abuse of minors here.) If you are aware of any abusive behavior please report it immediately to the Director of the Camp. The Director of the Camp in conjunction with the Camp’s Board will promptly investigate and resolve any such complaints or reports.
