Summer Adventures in the City

“Summer Adventures in the City,” a summer camp (CRE) for deaf and hearing children, ranging in age from 4 to 13, was organized by Il Treno, a social cooperative, in conjunction with the Rome branch of the National Association of the Deaf and the City of Rome. The CRE 2009 was held at the Fulvio Bernardini Community Athletics Center on Via dell’Acqua Marcia 51, in Rome, from June 29 to July 10. The children had fun taking part in sports and hands-on activities in a bilingual environment (Italian and LIS) and spent enjoyable days outdoors.

RWF Director Stefania Fadda helped contribute to a successful project by providing psychological counselling to the staff regarding the relational dynamics of deaf and hearing children involved in the summer camp.
