life with type 1 diabetes

New to Type 1 Diabetes? 
You're Not Alone - We Can Help
Turn here for compassionate one-to-one support and practical suggestions from JDRF volunteers who have "been there." You'll also find vital resources and information, including answers to some of the most frequently asked questions about type 1 diabetes. 

For Adults
Type 1 diabetes is a disease you never outgrow.  Adults with type 1 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 to know they are not alone as it is for kids and teens. 

For Teens 
Teens with diabetes 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
JDRF Kids Online features pen pals, kids' art, information about dealing with type 1 diabetes day-to-day, and more. There's also a special section for kids newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes and their families and friends.
