Mission Statement:

One Heartland is a national non-profit organization dedicated to greatly improving the lives of children, youth and their families impacted by HIV/AIDS and other significant life challenges worldwide.

Philosophy/Belief Statement:

One Heartland provides a place where children affected by HIV/AIDS can experience fun, acceptance and normalcy. To maximize the value of our programs, we have added leadership and life skills training, psychosocial resources and life enhancement services. Through recreational camping experiences, One Heartland continues to make serious contributions to improving the lives of our campers in real and meaningful ways.

Program History:

One Heartland (formerly Camp Heartland) began in 1993 as a camp for children affected by HIV/AIDS. Our core competency is in providing camping programs and we have recently expanded our offerings to include year-round services for youth, leadership training, global AIDS action, HIV education, and social service camps for children affected by other diseases and life challenges. While broadening our outreach to children in extreme poverty and other stigmatized circumstances, we remain committed to children and youth impacted by HIV/AIDS in the United States.
