Abstract:
Children with congenital craniofacial conditions (CFCs) and their families may stand to benefit from day camps offering tailored psychosocial support and resources. Nonprofit ConnectMed International has held virtual and in-person day camps in San Diego for this community since 2018. We administered surveys before and after a series of day camps to understand the needs of this community and benefits perceived programming offered. Although studies have reported the psychosocial benefits of camps for children with rare diseases, few have examined the specific benefit for children with CFCs and their parents. Herein, we present the findings of our survey study as the first article to report a needs assessments and psychosocial benefits of day camps for children with CFCs and their parents.

01:27Cranial Bones: Lateral View
The temporal bone forms the lower lateral side of the skull. The temporal bone is subdivided into several regions. The flattened upper portion is the squamous portion of the temporal bone. Below this area and projecting anteriorly is the zygomatic process of the temporal bone, which forms the posterior portion of the zygomatic arch. Posteriorly is the mastoid portion of the temporal bone. Projecting...
01:14Cranial Bones: Superior and Posterior View
The frontal bone is the single bone that forms the forehead. At its anterior midline, between the eyebrows, there is a slight depression called the glabella. The frontal bone also forms the supraorbital margin of the orbit. Near the middle of this margin is the supraorbital foramen, the opening that provides passage for a sensory nerve to the forehead. The frontal bone is thickened just above each supraorbital margin,...

Sutures are immobile joints between adjacent bones of the skull. The narrow gap between the bones is filled with dense, fibrous connective tissue that unites the bones. The long sutures located between the skull bones are not straight but instead follow irregular, tightly twisting paths. These twisting lines tightly...
