The 2024 Conference dates will be announced soon
The 2024 NACCHO Conference
The AZBD is able to organize a specialized annual conference that focuses on the work of bleeding disorder summer camps.
Designed by a planning team from across the country, NACCHO (North American Camping Conference for Hemophilia Organizations) is facilitated by nationally known presenters and leaders from the bleeding disorder community who share useful camp resources and techniques. Participants can exchange resource materials, meet with representatives from NHF, pick up new ideas, and share their most successful endeavors with people from other camps.
We will provide education and learning opportunities through five major interest tracks:
- Administration Track: All the nuts-and-bolts sessions on how to budget, market, promote, insure and manage camp – including facilities management, registration, policies, purchasing supplies for camp, and much more.
- Campers and Parent Track: All sessions relating to child/youth development in theory and in practice, contemporary parenting issues, working with children with behavioral challenges, sending children home, developmental or practical issues related to bleeding disorders, as well as current topics relating to working with parents, building partnerships, setting limits, and enforcing camp rules.
- Programs and Activities Track:Â All sessions related to instruction in sports, arts, adventure, and waterfront operation.
- Staff and Leadership Track:Â Sessions within this category fall into two areas: those relating to staff hiring, training and management; and those relating to camp leadership theory and practice, cultivation and training, vision, ethics, community building, and establishing or changing camp culture.
- Medical Services Track: All sessions related to the providing of medical and social services at camp. Should you have any questions regarding NACCHO, please feel free to contact us at (602) 955-3947 or by email: NACCHO@arizonahemophilia.org
