Camp to Belong – WI (CTB-WI) has been connecting brothers and sisters separated in the welfare system since 2015.  Our mission is for separated siblings to build and maintain connections through a variety of programs. The main program is a summer camp at which children placed in out-of-home care can be with their biological siblings to build shared memories and connections.

In addition to building and maintaining connections between siblings, our mission is to educate those who work with children in the child welfare system (i.e. social workers, foster care coordinators, judges, Court Appointed Special Advocates, Guardian ad Litems, public defenders, legislators, administrators, foster parents, parents, relatives, children and youth, etc.) about the importance of the sibling connection. We would love to create a world where siblings never have to be separated.  

Since 2015, we have reunited sibling groups through programs such as summer camps and sibling connection events.

None of our work would be possible without the commitment of our dedicated Board of Directors and volunteers. 

Camp To Belong-Wisconsin (CTB-WI) is a member camp affiliated with Camp To Belong-International (CTB). CTB is a national non-profit 501(c)3 organization dedicated to reuniting siblings placed in separate foster homes and other out-of-home care for events of fun, emotional empowerment and sibling connection. Founded in Las Vegas in the summer of 1995 by Lynn Price, a former youth in care, CTB was established to offer siblings who have been separated the opportunity to create a lifetime of memories.
