Camp LEO

Camp Leo offers the Only overnight camp in Western Washington exclusively dedicated to children with Type 1 Diabetes.

Why does that make us special? Well, we have years and years of experience working with diabetes, and many of our staff have diabetes themselves. We know on a first-hand basis how difficult it can be growing up with a disease that sometimes separates us. It can be really hard to find a community to help kids and young adults develop and overcome the challenges of living with diabetes. Camp Leo is an oasis for hundreds of children every summer where they can forget about what seperates them--not because we pretend diabetes doesn’t exist, but because everyone in the camp community shares in their experiences. At camp, diabetes becomes the Norm, not the Exception! We work hard at camp to create a safe and secure environment where campers can have a blast, meet others with diabetes, learn about their disease, and gain independence essential for living a healthy and happy life.

Come share this journey with us. We promise that you will have experience of significance and leave with memories and relationships that will last a lifetime.
