Camp Nejeda (Diabetes Foundation)

Camp Nejeda has been providing empowering summer camps and other programs for children with type 1 diabetes and their families since 1958. In addition to providing eight weeks of traditional Summer Sleep-Away camp, Camp Nejeda offers Family Camps, Day Camps, Spring and Fall weekend programs, T1D Adult Weekends, Nurse Education seminars, and much more.

Since 1990, the Diabetes Resource Advocates of the Diabetes Foundation have provided personalized support and help to locate resources necessary for care.  Our main service areas for participants in our program are:

  1. Free short-term medications and supplies for folks who are struggling with insurance or in financial distress along with counseling on long-term medication solutions for continuity of care.
  2. One-on-one support on the phone, in person, or through a web-based chat room to guide participants with the optimal resources to navigate through the everyday challenges of living with diabetes.
  3. Financial stipends for Camp Nejeda, a hands-on camp experience licensed by the NJ Department of Health, for individuals living with diabetes. 
  4. Subsidies and participant education on transportation solutions to reach medical providers safely throughout the state.
