Check out these testimonials from parents and campers:
“My daughter has attended epilepsy camp for the last 4 years. I cannot say enough good things about the camp, the staff and campers. It is truly a place where kids with epilepsy can have the freedom to try new and challenging tasks in a safe and fun environment. She has the opportunity to feel like a normal kid and not stand out as the kid who needs extra help because of her seizures. And more importantly, it is a place where she can build confidence and friendships with other kids who have the same conditions. We love camp!”
-Parent of a child camper
“Wow, I never knew there was so many other kids like me!”
– Camper, age 12
“Camp helped our daughter feel good about herself and her epilepsy.”
– Parent of teen camper
“Today, (PPR Participant) got together with a couple of guys he met at Purple Peaks. This is huge! I am beyond thankful that he is meeting people. He has been so alone. He spends time with his dad, but it’s so important for him to have friends his age.”
-Purple Peaks Adult Participant’s Parent
“This was my first time at camp, and I’m really happy I came. I did things I thought I would never do and made friends who also have epilepsy. Mostly, I realized I’m not alone.”
– Makiah, Camper
“Just wanted to say thanks for all you did to make camp a success. While I was nervous to come, it was a wonderful experience. I also wanted to thank Emily and Gaetha as they took care of me during my seizures. And I loved Sierra’s mental health session.”
