Autism Summer Camps in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

The Pittsburgh area has a range of summer options, from specialized day camps for autistic children to inclusive programs at community organizations, JCCs, YMCAs, and parks-and-recreation departments across Allegheny County.

Because specific camps open, close, change eligibility, and shift dates from year to year, we don't list individual camps here — instead we point you to the local hubs that maintain current listings.

ASERT's PAAutism.org maintains listings and a resource line (1-877-231-4244) and is a good starting point for current, local camp information. Autism Connection of Pennsylvania can point families toward regional programs. Your child's therapy providers and school often know local camps as well.

Funding note: some families can use Medical Assistance / ODP waiver respite funds toward summer programming, and some camps offer scholarships or sliding-scale fees. Ask each camp directly, and ask your county / supports coordinator whether any of your child's funded services can apply.
