"Inhibitor Family Camp" Comprehensive Health Education Services Registration is Open
Comprehensive Health Education Services is pleased to present its’ 3rd Inhibitor Family Camp weekend to be held on April 13-15, 2012 at The Painted Turtle Camp in Lake Hughes, CA.
This program is designed for families with a child age 6-19with an active inhibitor. These children often report that they cannot participate in many of the activities offered at a traditional hemophilia camp due to the threat of injury. Or that if they do choose to participate, they may spend the rest of the week in a wheelchair watching from the sidelines. Inhibitor Family Camp provides these children and their families an opportunity to come together with their true peers in the hemophilia community because we believe that everyone deserves a camp to call their own.
Registration is currently open.
Space is limited so all registration materials must be completed in full by February 17, 2012. There is no cost to families associated with Inhibitor Family Camp. The program is generously supported by an educational grant from Novo Nordisk. To register for camp, you must first complete the pre-registration form: Website: www.comphealthed.com/IFC-Registration---April-2012.php
