Are you a parent of a child with Type 1 Diabetes who could benefit from having a mentor, someone who knows what you are going through?
Or, are you an adolescent with Type 1 Diabetes who would like to have a mentor, someone who knows what it's like to live with diabetes?
We are looking for parents and adolescents to be part of a mentoring project. Two mentoring programs will be conducted – one for parents and one for adolescents.
To be involved you need to be a parent of a child with Type 1 Diabetes or an adolescent (13-16 years) with Type 1 Diabetes.
Your participation in the project will require you to attend a 'meet and greet' session with your mentor and be willing to communicate with your mentor over an eight-week period.
