    Learning to live with diabetes can be challenging, especially for children. Kids don't like feeling different from their peers. We are pleased to offer the Camp Too Sweet program for children ages 8 to 17 who have type 1 or type 2 diabetes. This week-long summer program teaches young people with diabetes the self-management skills that they need to take care of themselves.

We provide positive role models to help kids establish healthy habits that will last a lifetime. Camp Too Sweet focuses on helping campers accept their diabetes, teaching them how to live a healthy lifestyle—and most importantly, on having fun! Campers interact with other kids just like themselves, who are facing the same challenges, in the beautiful and exciting setting of our residential camp. Campers stay in supervised cabins with other children. Tuition for residential camp is $435 and includes all meals, snacks, lodging and activities for the week. Tuition for day camp is $265 and includes lunches, snacks and daytime activities for the week.
