ABOUT US

WHAT IS PADRE?

PADRE stands for the Pediatric Adolescent Diabetes Research and Education Foundation. PADRE was started 20 years ago by a father of a newly diagnosed 5 year old girl, who was searching for resources and information regarding Type 1 diabetes.

Today, PADRE serves hundreds of families in the Orange County area, through a variety of activities that are hosted by the organization including: The Annual Family Retreat in Lake Arrowhead, the Harvest Carnival, the PADRE Fashion Show, the annual Golf Tournament, and Summer Camp.

Activities are also held on a regular basis for various age groups of children ranging from 2 to 18 years old. Each group goes on a separate outing each month. Some past outings have included:

• Disneyland

• Knott's Scary Farm

• Surfing with Diabetes

PADRE additionally offers monthly educational and support classes including a Caregiver's class; which helps grandparents, relatives, and babysitters gain knowledge about diabetes safety. If you would like to receive information about any of these activities, please feel free to sign-up for the PADRE mailing list.

Diabetes is a family disease, and the PADRE Foundation is here to help you navigate this uncharted territory.

The staff and families of PADRE look forward to meeting you!
