Helen Schneider

A senior project manager and licensed architect with Perkins&Will, Schneider has cultivated her passion for the design of non-profits, schools, and other mission-driven organizations over the course of her career. Her involvement in the Enchanted Hills Camp project gave her a new perspective on how people experience and engage with space, presenting new opportunities to enrich the built environment we all share.

Nestled in the forested hills west of Napa Valley, Enchanted Hills Camp—which is owned by LightHouse for the Blind and Visually Impaired—has provided unparalleled recreational opportunities and skills training for blind and low-vision campers of all ages since 1950. After the devastating Napa wildfires of 2017 destroyed more than 25 structures and in excess of 900 trees on the property, the camp was not only rebuilt but also reimagined.
