About

The Breakthrough T1D Community Summit is a free educational and networking opportunity for all those impacted by type 1 diabetes (T1D). Community Summit will bring our community together to learn from T1D experts, hear about the latest breakthroughs in T1D research, meet vendor exhibitors, connect with others impacted by T1D, and more. The educational program and conversations will be geared towards an adult audience, but we do have limited space in our Youth & Teen Programming available.

Breakout sessions will include: 
  • Safe Driving with T1D is No Accident
  • T1D Technology
  • Traveling with T1D
  • Early Detection and Clinical Trials
  • Balancing Mental Health and Diabetes
  • Navigating Your New Diagnosis
  • Helping Teens Transition from Dependence to Independence
