Teen Retreat
Teen Retreat
Being a teenager can be complicated, and type 1 diabetes doesn’t make it any easier. Camp Kudzu’s Teen Retreat was created to foster independence and community among our older campers (7th-12th grade). During this session, we focus on hard-hitting topics related to being a teen living with type 1 diabetes.
This weekend provides time for campers to strengthen relationships made during summer camp with a smaller group of peers while exploring the diabetes-related challenges that they likely face every day.
Through fun, high-level programming, and engaging educational sessions, teens address college, uncomfortable topics, transiting to adulthood, and more!
Similar to our Summer Camp Program, campers are assigned to a cabin for the weekend that is supervised by counselors and a clinician to support their diabetes management.
Cost
Realizing that different families have different abilities to pay, Camp Kudzu utilizes a tiered fee structure. We instituted this structure to provide the highest quality programs possible, to continue serving all community income levels, and to preserve camp for years to come!
The cost for Teen Retreat is $400 per camper, including a non-refundable $100 deposit.
