Why you might want to consider taking this opportunity: For many kids with diabetes, there is no one else in their school or community who has the disease and they can struggle with being open about it. A diagnosis also brings a whole new set of skills for kids to learn, from how to test their blood sugar, and recognize a high or low, to maintaining a balance between food, insulin and activity.?

At D-Camps, kids get a break from being different. It is one of the few places where everyone just gets it, and nothing has to be explained. Campers often go home with a new level of independence in managing their diabetes and a feeling of empowerment that helps them continue the healthy practices they learned at camp.?
