The Florida Diabetes Camp was incorporated in 1970 to provide a fun, safe, educational and diabetes friendly camp environment for children with type 1 diabetes and their families where they can gain the confidence, skills and knowledge to achieve their full potential. The Florida Diabetes Camp is a non-profit organization that does not receive any governmental support nor does it receive any funding from any national diabetes organization. An independent volunteer Board of Directors governs Camp and since the founding of the organization, our policy has been that all children can attend Camp regardless of the family’s financial situation.
