“You will love being a Family Link volunteer.  My family benefitted from it and we never felt alone again because we were surrounded by a whole new and understanding community.  Now I’m proud to be leading Family Link in Utah.  You are becoming part of making sure that no families who are dealing with diabetes are falling through the cracks. Thanks for that!”
