This month on Zoom: Meet the creators behind AnimaT1D

AnimaT1D is an incredible animated short video series that is demystifying type 1 diabetes, one video at a time.

Despite being crucial for managing type 1 diabetes, 1 in 5 people with T1D don’t receive comprehensive education at diagnosis due to barriers like access, distance, language, and insurance issues. The team behind animaT1D believes everyone globally should have access to clear, reliable Type 1 Diabetes education—free and without barriers.

Join us Thursday, November 20 at 7pm on Zoom to meet the creators. Bring your questions and ideas for future episodes!

This session is part of Gales Creek Camp's Hope-Mongering parent and caregiver support series, where we recruit an array of key voices to join our conversations: parents, young adults who grew up with T1D, health coaches, educators, innovators, dietitians, T1D doctors and nurses, and of course the GCC summer camp crew.
