Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is a disease you never outgrow. Adults
with type 1
diabetes not only have to face the everyday challenges of managing their disease at work and home, they also have to deal with lack of awareness from the general public. It's just as important for adults with T1D to know they are not alone as it is for kids and teens. 

For Teens 
Teens with T1D face their own set of issues and concerns. Get sound advice on topics like driving, dieting, drinking, preparing for college, and more; and read about other teens living with and overcoming the daily challenges of the disease.

For Kids
