In My Community

The Safe at School program is a nation-wide program committed to the ongoing fairness, protection and safety of school children with diabetes.

We realize it takes a team effort to meet the needs of children who are diagnosed with diabetes, which is why we are devoted to establishing strong connections between families, schools, and healthcare providers.

To gain a better understanding of the Association's Safe at School Campaign, a Safety and Fairness for Children with Diabetes booklet is available. For more information on discrimination and your rights in schools, feel free to browse the Your School Your Rights brochure.
