Alexandria, VA
"The American Diabetes Association is pleased to announce the passage
of Georgia House Bill 879, a key piece of legislation in the fight to
keep children with diabetes medically safe at school. This bill,
which was signed by Governor Nathan Deal earlier today, allows
volunteer school employees who are properly trained to assist
children with diabetes in administering their insulin, if needed.
This bill also allows children, if they are capable to do so, to
self-manage their diabetes while at school."
This is great for children with diabetes. Parents should check to see what their school's local policies are, and contact your local legislator if something needs to be done.
