Your camp opens in weeks. Be ready for what the day brings.
A 24/7 crisis hotline, ready-to-use emergency plans, staff training, and expert guidance — built to give camp directors confidence from the first bus arrival to closing ceremonies.
You still have time to put the right systems in place.
Most of what a camp needs to be prepared can be built and delivered before opening day. Our team helps you get there quickly, without pulling your leadership off enrollment, hiring, and program planning.
Camp directors already care about safety. The question is bandwidth.
Between April and May, your leadership is hiring counselors, confirming enrollment, training staff, and running a dozen logistics tracks at once. Emergency preparedness is on the list, but it rarely gets the uninterrupted time it deserves.
That's where we come in. Joffe provides experienced safety professionals, ready-to-use plans and templates, and a team you can call the moment something happens at camp. We give you the structure and the backup so your leadership can stay focused on delivering a great summer.
Built for the realities of running a camp.
Each camp is different, and your plan should be too. Here's the foundation every partner camp gets access to from day one.
24/7 Emergency Hotline
Direct access to experienced emergency and safety professionals, any hour of any day. When something happens at camp, you're not alone and you're not guessing.
- Live voice support, not a call center script
- Guidance from staff who've managed real incidents
- Follow-up documentation and debrief support
Emergency Action Plans
Ready-to-use plan templates designed for camp operations, then customized to your facility, activities, and staff structure. No starting from a blank page.
- Medical emergencies, severe weather, lost camper, evacuation
- Aquatic, adventure, and transportation protocols
- Parent communication and reunification procedures
Staff Training Resources
Live online training sessions led by Joffe safety experts — not pre-recorded modules. We work through drills, response protocols, and your emergency action plan together, so your team leaves knowing exactly what to do and why.
- Live online sessions led by Joffe safety experts
- Incident response drills and tabletop exercises run live with your team
- Emergency action plan built collaboratively during the sessions, with supporting safety documents included
Document & Policy Templates
The paperwork that keeps a camp operating safely and defensibly. Forms, checklists, and policies ready to adapt to your program.
- Incident reports, medical forms, release documents
- Daily safety checklists for waterfront, kitchen, and grounds
- Parent-facing policy language and communication templates
Day camps, overnight camps, and specialty programs.
Every camp has its own shape. We tailor our support to match how yours actually runs.
Day Camps
Transportation, field trips, heat management, dismissal procedures, and the parent-communication cadence that day camps live and die by.
Overnight Camps
After-hours incident response, health center protocols, cabin-level supervision, and the extended-stay risks that come with residential programs.
Specialty Camps
Activity-specific safety protocols for water, horses, adventure, arts, and faith-based programs. We build around what your camp actually does.
Here's what we can have in place before your first camper arrives.
A realistic look at what the first weeks of our work together look like, tuned to the season you're already in.

Plans & Templates

Season-Long Support

A program like this — live expert training, custom plans, 24/7 response, documentation, and season-long support — typically sits well outside a camp's safety budget. We built it so it doesn't have to.
A conversation, then a plan.
We start by learning how your camp runs — your facility, your team, the activities you offer, and the specific things that keep you up at night. From there we build the plan that fits.
