University of California-San Diego CDN Chapter

University of California-San Diego

Located in San Diego, California

Started in the Fall of 2015, the College Diabetes Network at UCSD is a place where undergrads with and without T1D can comfortably discuss the highs and lows of diabetes and share their personal experiences in a safe environment. We also aim to do charity work for various diabetes organizations in San Diego, and to educate the UCSD student body about T1D. If you’re interested in joining, please email us! We’d love for you to be a part of our chapter!

Our Mission

We aim to provide a community for UCSD undergraduate students with Type 1 Diabetes to create a support network which will enable students to fulfill their potential and limit the negative psychological and physical effects of Diabetes, and to educate the general student body about Type 1 Diabetes through education events. We also aim to fundraise donations for non-profit organizations that search for a cure for Type 1 Diabetes.
