Our 1st T1D Teen Group of 2017 was so much fun! Our Teens came together for a Paint Night Party and we are loving their completed masterpieces! Their work of art will be auctioned off at this year’s Gala on April 22nd.

Teen Talk is a group open to teens with T1D, between the ages of 13-18. These meetings give an opportunity for teens to hang out with their peers living with T1D for advice, support (or just to vent), have a good time and participate in projects and chapter activities together.  Surrounding yourself  with others living with type 1, is empowering! They all understand one another – the teens share their “story,” support one another and work hard to provide a positive atmosphere to one another. The teens give each other strength and hope.
