​Who We Are

Special Forces for Special Needs
Summer Camps for Youth and Adults


​Christian Berets is a compassionate, experienced, non-profit, donor supported organization dedicated to serving people with different abilities; a ministry team of board members, staff, and volunteers with a heart for helping others since 1970.


Our priority is providing week-long summer camps for youth and adults with special needs. These camp sessions are held at a fully functional, ADA compliant facility, in the breathtakingly beautiful Sierra Mountains of Mi-Wuk Village, California.


For campers (and their families or caregivers) summer camp is a highlight of their year!​ Christian Berets' outreach is possible because of the caring people who pray and give their time, resources, and financial support throughout the year.
