South Texas Juvenile Diabetes Association

MISSION: To enhance the lives of children with diabetes through personal empowerment, family support, community awareness, and public advocacy.

Our organization has existed for five years, and our board consists of parents of children with diabetes, business leaders, and educational leaders. We also work closely with Pediatric Endocrinologists in the RGV and local Universities and partner with many coalitions. 

VISION: Empowering Children, Supporting families, and Educating the Community

We provide education and support to families and school districts on how to help children with diabetes live productive and healthy lives. These include summer camps, conferences, educational sessions for nurses and educators, and family support meetings.
