I wrote about a college fair and a college recruiter last week, so I guess it makes sense to continue the theme and write about diabetes in college this week.
If you know someone with diabetes who is finishing high school and heading to college, be sure to let them know about CDN. This non-profit organization was founded in 2009 by a student who didn’t want to feel alone and reached out to others on campus with diabetes. Now CDN is a thriving organization with chapters on college and universities all over the country. Their logo is …for the highs and lows of college life. How perfect is that??
CDN provides support to college students with diabetes, including answers to common questions, online resources, get-togethers with peers on campus, and pamphlets for students and parents. The Off to College booklet offers all sorts of suggestions for the everyday things that come up that a soon-to-be college student or parent of a college student may not even anticipate!
Check out CDN’s website for more information or to help start a chapter today.
