Colby Wyckoff​

Director of Camp at Mandell JCC​

"Dr. G’s program allowed us to get our staff thinking and collaborating with one another on topics that are relevant in their day to day lives and would be relevant when working with campers and their peers in a camp setting. Dr. G has a way of presenting information to participants in an informative, relevant and practical way where you truly feel like you can utilize and apply everything that is discussed. Dr. G makes this program user friendly to the facilitator by providing a comprehensive guide and list of everything that will be needed in order to run the program successfully. Having the ability to welcome Dr. G to your training in an on-demand format is invaluable. I cannot recommend this program enough!"

Todd Brinkman​

Executive Director of YMCA Camp Kern​

“Dr. G, has been able to motivate and engage our YMCA Day Camp Staff to new heights this summer. She started our summer with an amazing virtual presentation to over 100 staff of all ages and years experience, each taking something away. We then followed up with the staff over conversations with her hands content and activities. She has made this one of our best summers yet.”

Jane Sanborn​

Executive Director at Sanborn Western Camps/Colorado Outdoor Education Center​

“As the national conference program chair for the ACA for many years, I know that Dr. G. is one of our most well-received speakers—her evaluations from attendees are always outstanding, and her classes are so popular that it is hard to find meeting rooms large enough for her programs. Dr. Gilboa’s research and information is cutting edge and her style is lively and personable. Members of the American Camp Association are better camp directors and youth workers because of the information and insight that Deborah has shared with us. I highly recommend Dr. Gilboa as a speaker for any organization. She is incredibly easy to work with and will consistently exceed your expectations.”
