JDRF San Diego Family Network

JDRF San Diego Chapter’s Family Network is a community of people whose families are impacted by type 1 diabetes. The Family Network provides opportunities for families to meet one another, share experiences, ask questions, and seek encouragement. We are not professionals, but concerned parents, aunts and uncles, siblings, sons and daughters who have been where you are.

 

The Family Network has get-togethers one Sunday of each month, typically from 1:30 pm to 3:30 pm. Please see the chapter's events calendar (located on the left side of this page) for upcoming Family Network events or view the calendar by month.

All families living with type 1 diabetes are welcome. Family Network is an outreach program of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation. All activities are organized and coordinated by volunteers. There is no cost to be connected to the Family Network.

Join us! See the positive impact that results from kids meeting other kids with diabetes, siblings meeting other siblings, and parents meeting other parents facing the challenges of this disease. When you participate in the Family Network, you take a step toward removing the barrier of isolation so frequently associated with diabetes and experienced by those touched by it.
