Endless finger pokes, precise carb counting, awkward injections, dreaded pump site changes, and sleepy-eyed 2:00 a.m. blood sugar checks etc…

These are things that only T1D Parents can fully understand.

Parents of children with T1D in San Diego and Riverside counties have come together to offer evenings of support where you can learn and share your experiences and challenges with others who are dealing with the same issues. These casual get-togethers provide parents with the opportunity to discuss the many facets of parenting a child with T1D with others who are doing the same.

The Parent Coffee Night is not a group of professionals, but of concerned parents who have been where you are and have adapted to their new way of living.

Come discuss the challenges and your journey of parenting a child with T1D. Groups are being held in various locations around San Diego County and the Temecula area.

Please do not bring children, this is for adults only.
