Welcome!

Thank you for visiting this site. See the update on Brandon's Story. See the recent story in the Victoria Times Colonist.

Will you support our call for British Columbia to do more to support school-going children with with Type 1 Diabetes?

There is a lot of room for improvement! We've been working hard to bring about positive changes but we haven't gotten results yet. That is why we created this website. There must be many parents out there who are struggling to get a good education for their children with type 1. And we are sure there are many more who understand that our schools need to do more to support children in schools with type 1. Together we will be able to bring about change.

Please sign the petition and explore the site for other ways to get involved or find out more about what needs to be done.

  1. I'm not Canadian, so I don't know if I could sign, but I wish you the best of luck with your petition. Maybe I'll try anyway. :)

    My son was diagnosed last year at the age of 2 so we are just beginning to learn the challenges of combining diabetes with school. Just another roadblock that we've been accustomed to breaking through!
