Summer Camp For Kids With Chronic Skin Conditions
Why you should choose Camp Discovery for your child
For one week out of the year, kids with chronic skin conditions from across the United States and around the world will come to Camp Discovery to experience an adventure filled with fun, friendship, and personal growth.
Camp Discovery Is Often The One Place Where They Don’t Feel Different
Each year, more than 300 campers benefit from Camp Discovery, at no cost to their families, many of whom do not have the resources to send their child to a special needs camp.
Camp Discovery Staff
Camp Discovery is staffed with various medical professionals including dermatologists, pediatricians, physician assistants, and nurses. Many of the counselors have chronic skin conditions as well, and can provide support and advice to campers. Camp Discovery is equipped to handle daily medical care regimens and medical emergencies.
A Typical Day
Everyone, regardless of their skin condition, can experience activities such as fishing, swimming, archery, horseback riding, nature trails, and just plain fun!
Transforming Lives
Camp Discovery transforms lives by providing the following:
- A safe and secure environment
- Building confidence
- Creating a sense of belonging
