Breakthrough T1D is sharing this information about Camp Sweeney as a resource for your family. Breakthrough T1D does not promote any one specific camp over another and encourages all of our families to do their research to find the camp that is best for their child living with diabetes.

Last year, Breakthrough T1D partnered with the Diabetes Education Camping Association (DECA) to promote diabetes awareness, diabetes camping programs and diabetes research worldwide. While searching for a cure is our number one priority, Breakthrough T1D is also committed to improving lives and this includes emotional health.

Diabetes Camps help children and families with diabetes lead healthier, happier, and more productive lives through good diabetes management. Their work is unparalleled in motivating and supporting children with diabetes and their families to stay on top of diabetes management everyday. Please visit the DECA website to learn more about Diabetes Camps that you might be interested in.
