Welcome to This Course

This course is for adults living with type 1 diabetes. It is also for the people who support them. That can mean a partner, a parent, a family member or a friend. Both groups can read it at their own pace, whenever there is a free minute.

Each lesson is short, so you can finish one in a few minutes. Each one also stands on its own, so you can start anywhere. Later lessons build on the ones before them. Reading in order helps the ideas connect, though it is not required.

The course explains how type 1 works, like a map of unfamiliar ground. A map shows where you stand, so daily choices are easier to think through. Your care team remains your main source of advice about your own plan. They know your situation in a way this course cannot.

Key takeaways
