Check-In and Kids Zone Drop-Off. Refreshments will be available!

Breakthrough T1D Syracuse Board President, Bart Feinberg, and Development Coordinator, Marianna Seefeldt, will welcome all attendees to the Rochester Community Summit and introduce the program.

Children ages 5-11 are invited to spend the Summit in our Kids Zone! Due to limited space, the Kids Zone is reserved for children with T1D only — please plan accordingly.

Please register your child separately on the registration site. The children’s program (for ages 5-11) will be held during the parents/caregivers/adult’s program. Parents will drop off their child after the keynote session and to pick up their child from their designated area after the breakout sessions.

We take the safety of your children very seriously; our children’s program volunteers are all background checked prior to volunteering with Breakthrough T1D. Parent/caregivers will be contacted should the child need any T1D care during the Summit.
