JDRF is happy to offer School Advocacy Trainings to educate and provide a supportive school environment for children with type 1 diabetes (T1D). The presentation at the school offers T1D basics, care plans, legal protections, challenges, strategies, and numerous resources for schools and their families. JDRF can even customize the training to address your child’s specific needs. We also provide classroom presentations to help your child’s peers understand type 1 diabetes. It is essential for schools to be able to recognize and treat the complex reality for multiple stages and ages of T1D on their campus.

For more information or to schedule a training at your child’s school please contact: Wendi Willock, wwillock@jdrf.org
