Summer camps

Join the D-Camps family

Our summer camps are designed to provide children living with type 1 diabetes the opportunity to enjoy an authentic camp experience in a medically accommodating environment, with a dedicated team of professionals. Our campers get the chance to meet and interact with other children and staff living with type 1 diabetes.

Many of these relationships develop into lifelong friendships with others facing similar challenges. Through attending camp, we are confident your child will gain independence in managing their diabetes and feel empowered to continue the healthy practices they learn at camp and know that they are not alone in living with type 1 diabetes.

The Goals of D-Camps:

  • Teach independent self-management of diabetes
  • Nurture lasting friendships
  • Improve self-esteem
  • Provide a safe, fun, and educational camp experience

See you in 2024

Our D-Camps team is working hard to share 2024 dates and details very soon and we cannot wait to see you around the campfire next summer! Questions? Email us at camps@diabetes.ca
