At South Texas Juvenile Diabetes Association, we’re all about our families of children living with diabetes; we wouldn’t be who we are or where we are without our passionate team and community. So, at this time of unrest, we want to partner with you so that we can continue this vital work in our community.

We know that non-profits are the pillars of many communities. Support a non-profit through this Sip & Support event.
More about STJDA: STJDA was founded in 2011 by a group of parents with the aim of providing support to other families like theirs, whose children were living with Type 1 diabetes. Over the years, STJDA has continually adapted to the changing needs of the children and families they serve, including the growing number of children in the Rio Grande Valley who are living with Type 2 diabetes.

STJDA carries out its mission through a variety of programs and services, led by a volunteer board of directors that sets the organization’s goals and promotes its work across the Rio Grande Valley. These services include Camp Freedom summer camp experiences, the school-based Stomp Out Diabetes education and prevention campaign, our signature Shot Spots Bears distributed at all Valley hospitals to newly-diagnosed children, Coffee Connections parent support group gatherings, specialized Family Food Pantry in McAllen and Weslaco, and our annual Sweet Run 5K fun run and walk.

These services are intended to assist with and improve the circumstances of those who receive them, to help its community thrive, to upskill, to broaden their knowledge, to network and learn from one another. Find out more at www.stjda.org
