Teen camp OK for inexperienced?

I'm wondering if Deer Park teen camp would be appropriate for my 15-year-old who has never done a meditation retreat before and who doesn't already have a practice. Her school incorporates mindfulness in a meaningful way, and I meditate, so it's not an unfamiliar concept. She has ADHD and anxiety, and I would love for her to have an immersive experience that equips her with some skills and gives her a sense of community and peer support. But I wouldn't want her to feel like she's in over her head. (She has gone to many overnight camps, and has camped in tents before.)
