Camp for Children and Youth with Diabetes
Camp Hopewell offers two week-long summer camp sessions for children and youth with Type 1 Diabetes. This program offers young people the same fun and exciting programming as our summer church camp sessions, including all the great outdoor games and events.
In addition to regular camp activities, these sessions include education and guidance to help participants learn how to better control their diabetes and lead a healthier lifestyle. Campers may learn to meet many of their medical needs, such as testing their blood sugar or maintaining their insulin levels, without the aid of an adult. It's a great step to helping them learn to be independent and confident people. Several physicians and nurses volunteer for this program making it a safe and rewarding week for young people.
