WE KEEP YOU INFORMED
Our full-time logistics, systems and financial personnel handle
travel to camp arrangements, flights and invoicing, keeping
you up-to-date with your camp’s international staffing.
If you have a concern or question, just call your personal
Account Representative for help.
WE TAKE CARE OF ALL YOUR NEEDS
• Participants come to the U.S. via legal,
government- authorized J-1 cultural exchange visitor visas.
Camp America handles all visa arrangements.
• International travel is arranged from London or selected
regional gateways. Participants are given full information
on domestic travel between their U.S. port of arrival and
your camp.
• Participants are covered by health, accident, emergency
dental and optional baggage insurance during their stay in
the U.S. We also offer comprehensive crisis support.
• Both camps and participants receive full Camp America
support before, during and after the nine week program. If
there’s a problem of any kind, we’re here to help.
