About this camp

Camp MYDA is a place where there's nothing unusual about having Type 1 Diabetes. There's no need to explain blood sugar testing, finger pricks, insulin injections, ketones, "lows," boluses, or carb counting. Everyone here understands!

We aren't like a trip to the endo's office, but we have endocrinologists, physician assistants, and dieticians supporting nursing staff will be there. We aren't a classroom of lectures and chalkboard diagrams, but we have education woven into camp with impromptu learnings during activities, meal time, and casual conversations.
