The Lovejoy Royal Family Kids’ Camp began in 1998, and in 2022 it was one of 240 week-long camps worldwide. The first Royal Family Kids’ Camp was founded in California in 1985, and in 2015 a year-round mentoring program for children in foster care was added. The program is presently sponsored by Lovejoy Family Church of the Nazarene in Lovejoy, GA, and for 30 years volunteers, churches, businesses, local municipal partners, and Royal Family Kids staff have dedicated time, talent, and resources to it. The camp curriculum and activities are woven through the modality of Trust-Based Relational Intervention, and children spend an entire week in a campground setting with nature-focused, outdoor play activities.

The Royal Family Kids’ Camp Mission Statement is to create positive memories for abused and neglected children. Leadership for For The Children – Lovejoy Royal Family Kids Camp and Mentoring Club includes Alice Harper and Jennifer Campbell.

Testimonials about the program include a statement from Becca C. Johnson, Ph.D., who said, “The overall effectiveness of Royal Family KIDS camps that I have experienced is that one week at camp can be as effective as 1 year of counseling sessions.” One camper said, “The thing I like at Royal Family Kids Camp is mostly the pool, then fishing. I get to try new things and I learned how to swim. I also got to go canoeing. And I made new friends. I like the Counselors. That’s why I like Royal Family Kids Camp.” Another camper said, “I like this camp because this is my family.” The Christian Camp and Conference Association stated that it enthusiastically supports the work of RFK Camp and described RFK Camp as providing an environment, program, and volunteers well-suited to the unique needs of kids in foster care, with a proven track record of providing quality, life-changing experiences.
