Designed and led by eminent experts in the field of gifted youth, Yunasa embraces gifted children for who they are, helping them understand and work with the unique joys and challenges that gifted children face. Many traditional programs for gifted youth focus solely on intellectual abilities, overlooking the need for these children to grow in all aspects of their lives. Yunasa supports the whole gifted child, encouraging growth and support of campers intellectually, socially, emotionally, spiritually, and physically.
The Yunasa team is currently working with our hosts – YMCA Camp Shady Brook in Deckers, CO and our new Michigan location – Howell Nature Center in Howell, MI – on safety procedures in accordance with the field guide developed by the American Camp Association and guidelines from the Center for Disease Control. The safety of our campers is and will remain our utmost priority. We will be in touch with all families as soon as we have updates to share.
If you have any questions please contact our Program Coordinator at itulalian@educationaladvancement.org.

Financial aid is available for families in need. For more information, please email the Program Coordinator, and indicate “Yunasa Scholarship Inquiry” in the subject line.
We strongly recommend that campers are fully vaccinated for COVID-19 prior to camp. However, if your camper has a medical condition that restricts them from being vaccinated, unvaccinated students are required to submit a negative COVID-19 test from no more than 1 day prior to their arrival at camp.
Our host sites are currently following the resources provided by ACA’s (American Camp Association) and staying up to date with their local regulations. Once your camper receives their enrollment decision, more information will be provided regarding our hosts’ policies. Thank you for your understanding and support!
