Personal Insights & Experience with Type 2 Diabetes (Your Healthcare Team) 17-21 Apr 23

IPCIUM wants to connect with individuals living with chronic disease, like yourselves, in the hope that you will share your personal insights into your experience with Type 2 Diabetes (T2D). Not only because everyone’s experience is unique, but because sharing your individual journey provides understanding, acceptance and encouragement to individuals with similar lived experiences.
