Since 1994, our Neutropenia community has been gathering during the summers for our Family Retreat. We may be small as a rare disease, but together we are one big family!
Our goal with each retreat is to help equip attendees with the skills, knowledge and support you need to manage life with Neutropenia. These in-person retreats have proven to be invaluable, leaving a lasting impression on the lives of individuals with chronic Neutropenia and their families. We look forward to meeting again in July, 2025!
What to Expect:
- The opportunity to connect with other individuals/families who are dealing with chronic Neutropenia.
- Presentations from Neutropenia experts and professionals with topics covering chronic Neutropenia in general, management, up to date research findings and ongoing clinical studies.
- Breakout sessions to address the different types of chronic Neutropenia and specific topics; testimony to personal stories of those living with Neutropenia; and more!
- Kids Camp for all kids in attendance ages 4-16 brought to you by The Ella Jewell Foundation and coordinated by professional event planner Kristin McGuinness, her Sparklicious staff, and volunteers. Kids Camp will be in session Friday afternoon and all day Saturday during the presentations and break out sessions for adults (kids will join parents for all meals). We are excited for the kids to get to know each other and enjoy all the fun activities that Kristin and her staff have planned for the weekend!
- Shot parties! Demonstrate your shot technique and learn what works for others.
- A fun, relaxed weekend creating positive memories and developing a support network to help you along your journey.
