COVID-19 update as of July 17, 2020:
Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, we and our camp partners, The Center for Courageous Kids (CCK), made the difficult decision to forgo all in-person events and bring our camp experience entirely online. While this is different and certainly doesn’t beat meeting in person, we hope this virtual camp experience will still be a welcome opportunity for you and your family! We encourage you to register and engage with one another and our medical professionals, and get a glimpse of the incredible fun CCK has to offer! For questions, additional information, or to be sure you’re on our email list regarding future camp opportunities, please email [email protected]. For more information and resources relative to COVID-19, please visit our COVID-19 page: https://wearesrna.org/covid-19/
SRNA Family Camp is going online, Friday, July 24 through Saturday, July 26, 2020! Be sure to register using the link below!

EDUCATION PROGRAM
Medical professionals and specialists from our community will be attending camp and will be interactive in our Q&A sessions. The Q&A sessions are for the parents and any of the children, teens, or young adults who attend camp and are interested in connecting with the experts in the rare neuroimmune disorders. Closed sessions for just campers (those with a diagnosis) and separate sessions for their siblings will also be available. All medical volunteers attending SRNA Virtual Family Camp have been invited by SRNA to join as volunteers and to participate in our program. The medical volunteers may share their experience and make recommendations, but will not be able to provide specific medical advice.
QUESTIONS?
Please feel free to contact us at any time for additional information or to learn more about our Family Camp!
