Due to the discipleship nature of the CCA Program, all participants are required to complete an application as well provide two non-family references. Upon acceptance, a registration link will be sent to the applicant and their parent to register for the summer. 

The CCA summer calendar includes Memorial Day Weekend and 3 Sessions. Campers are welcome to register for Memorial Day Weekend and up to three full weeks, though only one week per session.

For example, a camper may register for Memorial Day Weekend and Weeks 2, 5, and 7, but cannot register for Weeks 2 and 3, as they exist within the same session.

Sessions:

• Memorial Day Weekend
• Session 1: Weeks 1-3
• Session 2: Weeks 4-6
• Session 3: Weeks 7-9

The Forest Home Child Care Assistant (CCA) Program is a Christ-centered discipleship program designed for girls who are already following Jesus Christ and desire to grow deeper in their relationship with Him.  In order to uphold our commitment to camper safety and experience, we enforce the following rules and expectations for campers while they’re at Forest Home. 

CCA Camper Expectations 

The Four R’s: 

• Respect others and all property 

• Resist unsafe behaviors 

• Report anything that makes you feel uncomfortable or if rules have been broken 

• Refresh your mind and body with Scripture and lots of water 

Touch / Talk / Territory: 

Touch 

• Acceptable: Handshakes, high-fives, and side hugs. 

• Unacceptable: It is not acceptable to have any kissing, unwelcomed touching, touching in an area covered by a bathing suit, or touching in any sexual manner. 

Talk 

• Acceptable: Encouraging words like “great job” and “you did awesome!”  

• Unacceptable: It is not acceptable to cuss, slander, gossip, or threaten anyone. Certain topics are not to be discussed among CCAs and can only be discussed with a CCA staff member, these topics are anything sexual, sexual identity, gender identity, suicide, drug use, and mental or eating disorders.   

      Territory 

• Acceptable: Your bed is your personal space and is a space for you alone. 

• Unacceptable: It is not acceptable to sit or lay on other peoples’ beds and/or go through luggage that does not belong to you. Always stay within the boundaries of camp and be in areas where others can see you. 
    

The Forest Home CCA Program is a “closed program” and we do not allow visitors or non-registered CCAs to visit.  Exceptions can be made for family to visit a CCA getting baptized by contacting cca@foresthome.org. 

While girls are serving at Forest Home as a CCA, we expect all CCAs to have a servant’s heart and positive attitude. CCAs will be expected to serve, participate in their own programming, and connect with their peers and leaders around them. We expect and encourage all CCAs to approach their responsibilities throughout the week with a positive attitude and a willingness to serve. 

Forest Home reserves the right in its sole discretion to ask that any CCA who we feel is not following these standards to change their behavior and/or to be sent home. Campers sent home for not adhering to camper expectations will be ineligible to return to the CCA Program for the remainder of the summer. 

All programming is designed for our campers to grow in their relationship with God, connect with others in community, and serve families through childcare. Between lip sync battles, lake days, and chapel sessions, your camper is sure to have a great time!
