Keeping Kids With Type 1 Diabetes Safe at School- With Nicholas Leitch

Today I had the privilege to sitting down with Nicholas Leitch who is this year’s winner of the Southwest Region Eagle Scout Project of the year, and was 1 of 8 national finalists for Eagle Scout Project of the year.  

Nico is a Type 1 diabetic - diagnosed at age 10- and we talked about his diagnosis and how that became the inspiration behind his project. Nico’s Eagle Scout project also led to the beginning of a new nonprofit organization called Diabetic Wellness Initiative.  Visit diabeticwellnessinitiative.org for more information or to donate and get involved!
