At my school, I am part of this program known as CIVITAS. This program strives to create gmore socially active citizens aware of how they can help the community and others. Part of the program requires a senior advocacy project! For my project, I decided to create diabetic information kits. I will be meeting with newly diagnosed families to help answer any of their questions, provide assistance/advice, and offer support, along with giving them the information kit!
Growing up with diabetes, I was lucky to grow up with the support system of my parents, doctor, and PENS team. However, I always wished I had someone to look to for guidance who really knew what I was going through!
...which led to my senior project! Unfortunately, I can't meet with every newly diagnosed diabetic (but imagine if I could). I know that a lot of my readers are diabetics, so I decided to post all of the information I'll be including in my diabetic binder kits on my blog for those of you I unfortunately can't meet up with! Hopefully you will get some use out of them!
