Arthritis Foundation camps provide a safe and secure camping experience for children and teens with juvenile arthritis and childhood rheumatic diseases. Campers gain a greater understanding of their own diagnosis and treatment, develop peer-to-peer support, increase independence and self-confidence, discover new skills and interests, and develop the skills they need to be leaders, advocates and champions in their everyday lives. Camp ArCTIC is a family camp. Your family will have the opportunity to meet, share strategies and form friendships with other families and have access to a variety of health professionals who will be available to answer questions and talk more about living with arthritis. Every child ages 5 -18 with arthritis or a related rheumatic disease is invited to attend camp and encouraged* to have 1 parent or guardian join us at camp for fun and educational opportunities. *Children ages 5 - 7 must be accompanied by a parent or guardian.
