A Community Where Kids With Type  1  Diabetes  Can Just Be Kids

When your child lives with type 1 diabetes, everyday moments can feel more complicated — from sleepovers to school days to summer plans. At The Barton Center for Diabetes Education, we create a safe, medically supported environment where children are understood, cared for, and free to just be kids. Surrounded by peers who share similar experiences and supported by trained staff and healthcare professionals, campers build confidence, independence, and lasting friendships — while families gain peace of mind knowing their child is in capable, compassionate hands.
