Diabetes Camp
Camp is bonfires and storytelling, sleeping bags and star gazing. It's hiking and swimming, noisy mess halls and dirty sneakers. It's about building forts and forging friendships; it's about growing up and gaining independence. For youth with type 1, it's especially helpful in teaching confidence and the freedom that comes with self-care.
