The New Orleans Recreation Development (NORD) Commission is seeking programmatic partners for the 2020 NORD Summer Camp Session. Summer Camp Partnership applications are for organizations interested in providing youth camp programming, teen career camp programming, or as a specialized service provider for NORD summer camps which are open to residents of the City of New Orleans. If an applicant is approved, the organization will be required to enter into a Cooperative Endeavor Agreement (CEA) with the City of New Orleans/NORD prior to youth summer and/or teen career camp program or service provider implementation.

Applicants interested in providing an inclusive summer camp experience for youth and teens with special needs are encouraged to apply.
