If you have a type 1 in your family or you are a type 1 between kindergarten and 12th grade we invite you and your family to join us for our second meeting:
Thursday
May 19th
6PM
Grand Mesa Middle School
At this meeting we will start with a 15 minute project, a 15-20 minute professional information speech and end with adult discussion and kid visiting time.
Just so you know we will be creating some other events throughout the year and meeting roughly every three months as a group. We would like to do a JDRF Mentoring Project here, a JDRF Walk for the Cure at the schools and maybe join the large walk in Denver at Elitch Gardens. We would like to have and are planning a teen meeting / group. We also are working toward working with Community Hospital and the Mesa State Nursing Program on some other fun future events. If you are interested in helping with any of these or want to be a part of them please email and let us know.
See you soon!

The goal of the group has three parts: for the community at large to understand more about type 1 diabetes, for kindergarten to 12th grade type 1 diabetics to; get to know, help and enjoy one another through local events and mentoring and finally, that the families of these type 1 diabetics will also recieve support from local professionals and one another.
