title: Camp for all connection: a community health information outreach project.
abstract: OBJECTIVE
  The purpose of the Camp For All Connection project is to facilitate access to electronic health information resources at the Camp For All facility.
  
  
  METHODS
  Camp For All is a barrier-free camp working in partnership with organizations to enrich the lives of children and adults with chronic illnesses and disabilities and their families by providing camping and retreat experiences. The camp facility is located on 206 acres in Burton, Texas. The project partners are Texas Woman's University, Houston Academy of Medicine-Texas Medical Center Library, and Camp For All.
  
  
  METHODS
  The Camp For All Connection project placed Internet-connected workstations at the camp's health center in the main lodge and provided training in the use of electronic health information resources. A train-the-trainer approach was used to provide training to Camp For All staff.
  
  
  RESULTS
  Project workstations are being used by health care providers and camp staff for communication purposes and to make better informed health care decisions for Camp For All campers.
  
  
  METHODS
  A post-training evaluation was administered at the end of the train-the-trainer session. In addition, a series of site visits and interviews was conducted with camp staff members involved in the project. The site visits and interviews allowed for ongoing dialog between project staff and project participants.
