Five dedicated students from The University of North Texas Health Science Center at Fort Worth’s Department of Physical Therapy recently spent a transformative weekend volunteering at Camp John Marc’s Camp Strong. The camp, which caters to children with neurological diagnoses and their families, offered an enriching experience for both the campers and the volunteers.
Camp John Marc is a host site for various children’s camps, facilitated by year-round staff and volunteers from organizations like Cook Children’s.
“The particular one that we went to, which was Camp Strong, was for kids that had neurological diagnoses under the age of 14,” explained Grace Snyder, a second-year physical therapy student. “It was a family camp as well, so kids, their siblings, and their parents were allowed to come.”
