Tackling diabetes stigma and its devastating effects will rely on courageous advocates and creative solutions. Right now the status quo is bogged down by harmful cultural narratives, misconceptions about diabetes, and not nearly enough collaboration. We think it’s time for a bit of disruption and we want to challenge everyone to join us in finding inspired, creative, radical, and out-of-the-box solutions.

Thank you so much to our program sponsors, Dexcom and Eli Lilly & Co., who helped make this event possible.
