Camp Corbett for All

Heart Speak Journeys has teamed up with Eloise Grout Koehler to create Camp Corbett for All. This program would not be possible without the generous support of the James R. Kuse Family Foundation, the fiscal sponsorship of Community Vision, and Make-A-Wish Oregon, who granted a wish to bring the original Camp Corbett to life.

Heart Speak Journeys partnered with Salida Regional Library’s children’s librarian to host a series called Authorship for All in early 2026. Children ages 3 years (younger sibling of a participant) to 10 years old joined, creating and building stories and poems together with equal enthusiasm!

Make-A-Wish Oregon

Heart Speak Journeys partnered with Make-A-Wish Oregon in the spring of 2025 to make a wish possible for a child and his loved ones. Camp Corbetta community-based AAC immersion experience, was the first of its kind. Thanks to this collaboration, Corbett’s wish of being understood by the people who love him came true.
