Children with diabetes can strive to accomplish anything in life.

Trained counselors who understand
Well equipped for general health and psychosocial needs
Diabetes management routines and protocols
“When I was diagnosed with diabetes, I was only 6 years old and I was scared and felt very alone. Being at camp made me feel like I belonged, and not only has the experience helped me, it has also helped my friends and family understand and to help me with my diabetes.”
