Camp Courage
Camp Courage is a concept for a mobile app to help educate, entertain, and connect youth ages 9-12 with bleeding disorders. Based on the spirit of sleep-away summer camps for kids with bleeding disorders, Camp Courage provides a sense of magic and wonder through active gameplay, passive story listening, and comic building. The projected benefits include an increased sense of self-confidence, knowledge of bleeding disorders, and recognition of one's emotions and emotional wellbeing. This project aims to create a space where youth can develop the support and connections they get at in-person camp, even if they can't be there physically.
