Community Table
Community Table is presented by the JDRF-Beyond Type 1 Alliance, and made possible with support from sponsors Abbott, Dexcom, Lilly Diabetes, and Vertex, active partners of Beyond Type 1 at the time of publication.
Welcome to the Community Table! Every month, all year long, Beyond Type 1 hosts conversations around under-discussed issues facing the diabetes community, bringing to the table community members, experts and healthcare providers. Throughout 2023, these conversations will focus specifically on commonalities, questions and difficulties that affect all of those living with diabetes, both type 1 and type 2. We’re excited and invite you to pull up a chair at the Community Table.
You can register to receive a toolkit following each conversation. Sign up HERE be a part of these conversations and find previous discussions listed below:
