A family interested in being connected with the Network will meet other families at quarterly get-togethers, walk together at the Walk to Cure Diabetes, and other activities coordinated by members. The Network is about sharing, helping, listening, and new friendships with people who understand your fears, questions, and yes, even your tears. We are not professionals, but concerned parents who have been where you are.
All families living with type 1 diabetes are welcome to be a part of the Family Network. The Network works through the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation, but all activities are organized and coordinated by volunteers. There is no cost to be connected to the Network.
To register your family contact Michelle Alexander at 601.981.1184. You will be introduced to volunteer parents familiar with the challenges of type 1 diabetes.
