Please share this invite with your students who have type 1 diabetes.

Young Voices: Life with Diabetes

Attendees will have an opportunity to meet other young people with type 1 diabetes, participate in an interactive “quiz bowl” game, and view videos created by teens living with type 1 diabetes. Plus all participants will receive a gift pack and enjoy free games at ESPN Zone!
