MOVEMENT IS MEDICINE! Warrior Mike (left) is right in his element here playing football with friends at school. He knows it’s fun, but he also knows that for us warriors, staying active means better insulin sensitivity, more stable blood sugars 💜#TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF

TASK SHIFTING! With few specialists, nurse-led clinics are overstretched. We have to build the capacity of Warrior Educators/peer educators to bridge gaps & strengthen T1D care. #T1DAfrica #SNF #Type1Diabetes

GRASSROOTS TO GOVERNMENT! What if peer-led care were integrated into national health systems, embedded in clinic protocols, backed by national policy and not an ad hoc add on to care models. Could this dream become reality? 💜#TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF #T1D #type1diabetes

LIFE. Painted boldly by little warrior Chrispus, his one word, his motivation to push forward, to live fully & fearlessly, no matter the obstacles type 1 diabetes presents. How is that for warriorhood?! 💜 #TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF #T1D #Type1Diabetes #TypeOneNation #501c3

SMILE! Young warrior, Francis, painted the one word that keeps him going, his daily reminder that type 1 diabetes and all its demands will not stop him from smiling. What’s your one word? 💜 #TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF #T1D #Type1Diabetes #TypeOneNation #T1DWarriors #501c3

POINT OF CARE A1C testing means no long waits, no referrals to far-off hospitals, no exhausting travel! It brings essential care closer to the home of the warrior, and with immediate results! Progress but The next challenge is long-term access and sustainability.💜 #TogetherWeCan

THREE A DAY. Thats our standard for blood sugar monitoring. Yet test strips are the most expensive part of #type1diabetes care. Accurate readings are a matter of survival. Time to make test strips affordable & accessible for every warrior, everywhere! 💜.#TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica

ESSENTIAL NOT OPTIONAL. Like the saying goes, If you want to go fast, go alone. If you want to go far, go together. In this life with T1D, community is not optional, it’s essential.💜 #TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF #T1D #Type1Diabetes #TypeOneNation #T1DWarriors #501c3

COMMUNITY IN ACTION. For us warriors, care does not always come in syringes and test strips, it comes when a big warrior holds space for a little one! Its comes in love, safety! It’s community in action! 💜 #TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF #T1D #Type1Diabetes #TypeOneNation #501c3

BRANCHES OF THE SAME TREE. We may come from different villages, wear different shoes, carry different stories but when it comes to type 1 diabetes, we are one tree! One community. 💜 #TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF #T1D #Type1Diabetes #TypeOneNation.#T1DWarriors #501c3

WATER, a warrior’s best friend right after insulin! Water helps keep blood sugar stable, supports kidney function and flushes out excess glucose. So warriors, keep that bottle close. Drink, drink, drink!💜 #TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF #T1D #Type1Diabetes #TypeOneNation

NURSE + WARRIOR COORDINATOR is a bond we celebrate time and time again because clinic after clinic, warrior after warrior, we always hear that they are the reason warriors feel protected, advocated for, cared for & supported 💜 #TogetherWeCan #T1DAfrica #SNF #T1D #Type1Diabetes
