Our Mission.
The mission of Camp Hot Shots is to empower youth to understand and manage diabetes through self-management and become self-disciplined and responsible. Our skilled medical staff will work with each child to help them understand and learn how to overcome the challenges of living with diabetes and to live a long healthy life.
Goals
To provide a positive, safe and healthy experience for children and young adults with diabetes
To educate children and young adults regarding diabetes and foster independence, self-discipline and responsibility
To promote that goals and aspirations are limitless if they properly manage their diabetes
To foster relationships between the children, young adults, staff, volunteers and parents/guardians that will last a lifetime
We want these children to know they are not alone in this battle and can do anything anyone else can do. They learn about diabetes in a fun and engaging way outside of hospital or clinical walls. They also learn from each other and develop friendships and make lifelong memories!
