Type 1 Diabetes: What You Need to Know is an online learning module that aims to improve awareness and knowledge about type 1 diabetes. Many patients struggle to find proper resources strictly about type 1 diabetes as it is often grouped with the other forms. Our program aims to provide valuable resources about nutrition, technology, basic medical terminology, and other aspects involved. This program would be valuable to anyone who is a type 1 diabetic themselves, a parent, significant other, future health professional, or someone who would just like to learn more about the disease.

Increasing education about type 1 diabetes to improve the lives of those affected by it.

 In the end, we hope to increase awareness about type one diabetes. There are plenty of resources for diabetes in general, but very little for type one specifically. Through this program, participants will also be able to identify factors that affect blood glucose levels, and it will allow diabetic participants to make adjustments in their daily life for optimal health and quality of life.
