Learn. Play. Thrive.

You don’t have to see the entire path, you simply have to take the first step. At Beyond Healthcare, we know that summer time can be difficult for kids who struggle with mental health concerns. It can also be a great time to get support, learn new skills, and prepare for the next school year.

Our summer programs are designed to welcome your child into a safe space where they can be themselves and not dwell upon what happened last year, instead, we’re here to help each of our young clients focus on building skills in the present moment and look forward to the future — and have a little fun along the way!

The Benefits of Summer Programs for Kids in Ohio

Ready to make this summer a time to remember for your child? Our summer programs for ages 8-11 in Ohio will blend engaging activities with expert mental health support. We’ll work on building social skills, emotional resilience, and a love of learning— all while keeping kids active and happy during the break.

We emphasize the power of meaningful and lasting connections. Our summer program creates opportunities for kids to connect with peers, build friendships, and develop strong communication skills in a safe and supportive environment.

Through our group programs, your child will develop coping skills to manage emotions and behaviors. We want to empower children to identify and manage their emotions through engaging activities and discussions in order to build a strong foundation to grow emotional intelligence and resilience.

Self-confidence is a crucial attribute that we all build at a young age. At Beyond Healthcare, our programs nurture a growth mindset that encourages kids to step outside their comfort zones, embrace challenges, and build the self-confidence they need to thrive throughout life.

Summer can be fun, but if you’re struggling with mental health, it can leave you with entirely too much idle time. We like to keep young minds curious and engaged with interactive activities that spark a love of learning and exploration — preventing the dreaded “summer slide.”

We’re all at our most genuinely creative state when we’re young. Through artistic expression, problem-solving activities, and imaginative play, our programs provide a way for kids to unleash their creativity and explore their interests and talents.

During our summer programs, we’ll work to combine engaging activities with healthy movement. After all, summer is meant for fun! We want your child to be active, energized, healthy, and ready for new adventures throughout the summer.

Give Your Child a Fun, Healing Adventure this Summer

Summer break shouldn’t mean a break from social connection, emotional well-being, or learning. Give your child a summer they’ll cherish — filled with friendships, creative exploration, and activities that keep them thriving all season!
