Hey there! If you're an Islander living with type 1 diabetes, we have some great news to share! This past year has brought some fantastic changes that are sure to make life a bit easier for you. In September 2024, the province made a significant move by removing the age restrictions on insulin coverage.

This is a big deal for many families and individuals who have been looking for more support. No longer having age limits means that everyone can get the help they need without worrying about arbitrary cut-offs. Whether you're a young person managing diabetes or someone who has been dealing with this condition for years, this policy change should help everyone access the resources necessary for effective diabetes management.
