For a student living with type 1 diabetes, every school day requires more than lesson plans—it requires a team of informed, confident adults.
Type 1 at School equips teachers, school nurses, administrators, counselors, coaches, transportation staff, and childcare professionals with the knowledge and confidence to help students with type 1 diabetes stay safe, healthy, and included.
During this in person educational event, you'll learn:
The basics of type 1 diabetes management
Best practices for keeping students safe at school
An overview of today's diabetes technology, including insulin pumps and continuous glucose monitors (CGMs)
How schools and families can work together to support student success
Whether you're supporting one student or an entire school community, you'll leave with practical tools you can put into action immediately.
