College Diabetes Network was founded for the purpose of connecting college students with and affected by Juvenile Diabetes in the hopes that these connections will create a support network which will enable students to fulfill their potential and limit the negative psychological and physical effects of Diabetes.

                CDN strives to

·         Create connections with other students with diabetes at your college or university

·         Create connections with the community to inspire children and young adults in the area

·         Educate the campus and community about diabetes and living a healthy lifestyle

·         Work to improve life on campus for diabetics through emotional support, personal connections, healthcare, and nutrition.

·         Create a central resource for prospective students and parents to have access to information regarding support services to diabetics at prospective colleges and universities.

How CDN Works

                       CDN enables and encourages students to create support networks at their school. These networks are then registered with CDN and a site is created for that school which includes all of their meeting information, information specific to that school/university, as well as contact information for the students who run the network at that school. This information can then be easily accessed by members as well as prospective high school students and parents who are interested in a particular college/ university.

                       Through the active participation of the students who create each support network we believe that the support networks registered with CDN will have a greater and longer lasting effect at their respective college/ university.

                       The main College Diabetes Network site will continue to support its affiliated networks through posting information and ideas relevant to the success of these networks, as well as provide a contact that is always available to support the success of each individual group.

Start Your Own Group/ Register a New School

                       By creating a support network at your college or university you are creating a vital resource for current and future students to utilize which will not only transform and support their college experience but will also ensure a healthier future as well.
