Med Camp 101 Offers a Deeper Understanding of Camp with a Fun Twist

Medical professionals participate in a camp-style trivia game on stage at Victory Junction during Med Camp 101, with one attendee playfully getting a pie to the face as others laugh and cheer.

Victory Junction’s Med Camp 101 was created to bridge a connection between clinical care and the transformative power of Camp. What began as an idea to engage medical partners has become an immersive experience that deepens understanding and strengthens referrals, helping more children access the joy and growth that Camp provides.

Here’s what makes Med Camp 101 so impactful:

    • Healthcare professionals gain firsthand insight into how Camp improves quality of life, helping children build confidence, independence, and a sense of belonging.
    • Attendees experience Camp just like campers and families do, allowing them to return to hospitals and clinics with authentic stories and informed recommendations.
    • Participants also earn continuing education credits, making Med Camp 101 both professionally valuable and personally meaningful.

As one attendee recently shared, the experience reveals how Camp offers a break from the complex realities children face every day creating space for joy, growth, and simply being themselves.

Med Camp 101 also plays a critical role in expanding access. By equipping referral partners with a deeper understanding of Victory Junction, we’re able to reach more families who may not yet know these life-changing experiences are available completely free of charge.

The impact Camp has on thousands of children and families wouldn’t be possible without the dedication of our referral partners, who help ensure every child who can benefit from Camp has the opportunity to experience it.

Med Camp 101 is sponsored by UnitedHealthcare, whose support helps make this immersive educational experience possible and strengthens connections between healthcare providers and the children and families served by Victory Junction.
