    Camp Hendon - the Kentucky Diabetes Camp for Children - is a 501(c)3 nonprofit program based in Louisville, KY. At Camp Hendon we give children with Type 1 diabetes a life changing experience that empowers them to take control of their journey with diabetes during two, week-long residential summer camp sessions. We also offer a weekend Family Camp, Teen Camp, monthly Parents Group Support Group, and other fun family events throughout the year. Camp Hendon is located in Louisville but serves the entire state of Kentucky (and beyond!) Learn more about our programs .
