TAPS Wellness Circles

Because every child deserves to be heard, understood, and supported—inside and out.

Social Communication Groups for Children with Type 1 Diabetes

Connect. Communicate. Thrive.

Living with Type 1 diabetes can feel isolating—but it doesn’t have to. Our TAPS Wellness Circles provide children and teens with a supportive space to connect with peers, share experiences, and develop essential communication and self-advocacy skills.

Through games, creative projects, and guided discussions, children learn how to express themselves, manage their emotions, and discuss their health needs with confidence.

Goals:
✔️ Build comfort discussing diabetes-related topics
✔️ Strengthen emotional regulation and social confidence
✔️ Develop teamwork, empathy, and connection
✔️ Promote resilience and a positive self-identity

Each Wellness Circle is led by a licensed speech-language pathologist and designed to nurture both communication skills and emotional well-being.
