Summer Camp

Sometimes Camp is the best medicine. And it’s the perfect place to make those much-needed connections a reality. Summer camp can be a lifeline for children living with diabetes, as well as for their families. It’s a place where kids can learn independence and develop a new level of self-confidence—all within a safe and fun environment unlike any other. May the magic of camp live and be shared here with friends who understand what it's like to live with diabetes, campers can share their fears and frustrations at the same time they celebrate milestones or "firsts.” Maybe it’s the first time they inject insulin or change a pump site without any help. Those moments don't go unnoticed; campers will often hear their name at morning announcements showcasing these "firsts," followed by clapping and cheers.
