Diabetes Educators

New Yorkers are increasingly feeling the effects of diabetes as thousands of people suffer from the disease, and many others may have diabetes and not know it! It is estimated that one out of every three children born after 2000 in the United States will be directly affected by diabetes.
That is why the American Diabetes Association's Rochester office is so committed to educating the public about how to stop diabetes and support those living with the disease.
We are here to help.

We have accomplished much, but as the number of Americans diagnosed with diabetes continues to rise, our mission becomes even more critical. Every dollar you raise and every mile you ride helps the American Diabetes Association in the effort to Stop Diabetes.

Camp Aspire
Session 1: June 30 - July 5, 2013 (ages 13-17)
Session 2: July 7 - July 12, 2013 (ages 8-14)
Rochester Rotary Sunshine Campus, Rush NY
Camp Aspire is located on 133 acres of land in a rural setting, including modern year-round cabins, an Olympic size swimming pool, nature trails, athletic fields, and a fishing pond. Camp allows children to feel at ease and "accepted" in a community where having diabetes is the rule, not the exception. The campers learn to understand diabetes and the process of self-management, under skilled and continuous medical supervision. We had a great two weeks last summer and are already planning for summer 2013. Be sure to check out our camp facebook group and keep in touch with other campers and camp families year round!
Registration is now open! Don't delay camp fills up fast! For more information, please contact Allison Pitkin at 585-458-3040 ext. 3472 or apitkin@diabetes.org.
