JDRF C.A.R.E.S. – Connecting Area Resources for Education and Support

This Mid Jersey Chapter program is geared toward connecting area families and children coping with juvenile diabetes. Members will receive e-mail newsletters highlighting upcoming events, recent research and interesting articles.

If you have any ideas or suggestions, please do not hesitate to e-mail VP of Outreach, Kelly Hyde or the JDRF Staff liaison, Erika Ferrigno at midjersey@jdrf.org.

If you or someone you know has recently been diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, JDRF can help. The Online Diabetes Support Team (ODST) is made up of JDRF volunteers who “have been there” and are available to offer you immediate, one-on-one support. We can also provide practical information about diabetes and its management.

Log on to www.jdrf.org for more information and to link to:

• The most recent issue of Life with Diabetes E-newsletter.

• JUST for KIDS Online featuring pen pals, stories and much more.

• The Mid Jersey Chapter Web page for localized information and events in your area www.jdrf.org/NJ/Mid-Jersey.

Please contact the JDRF office if you would like to be on our e-mail list or mailing list or if you are not currently a C.A.R.E.S. member but would like to join!
