DYF serves more than 1,900 individuals annually (children and teens with diabetes, siblings, parents and guardians) through its resident camps, day camps, recreation programs and diabetes education seminars. Our most well-known program is our Bearskin Meadow Summer Camp. Bearskin Meadow Camp (BMC) is one of the oldest wilderness camps for diabetic youth in the country.
And finally, in addition to our programs for children and teens with type-1 diabetes, DYF will spend a considerable amount of time at its Bearskin Meadow Camp facility teaching and working with medical students and dieticians needing intern experience in type-1 diabetes.
