Flexible Insulin Therapy (FlexIT) Workshop
FLEX IT

It doesn't matter if you have been type 1 for 2 months, 2 years or 20 years - we all can feel a bit lost sometimes. Educating yourself about type 1 is one of the most empowering ways to feel in control of your diabetes, and the FlexIT workshop is a great way to refresh your knowledge and build your confidence. Join us at the next type 1 diabetes group program: FlexIT!
