What is Wee Challengers: Our programs often have young T1Ds joining in and demonstrating extreme courage and determination. This initiative specializes the programming for this age group and unites children and their parents to support their unique needs. Children meet and play with peers with Type 1, while parents share strategies and find support in a facilitated discussion.

In partnership with Niagara T1D Families, this event is a part of our Wee Challengers Series.

What you can expect: As with all ICD programs, diabetes management will be integrated seamlessly into the session which will add another level of safety and peer engagement. We will test our blood together and all things that build a healthy norm, allowing these youngsters the chance to see their peers in action. While they play, parents will enjoy a chance to share strategies and subtle tips in a facilitated discussion group.
