ICD retreats are focused on empowering youth to embrace diabetes as a positive force in their lives.

We empower T1D youth to overcome obstacles and develop coping mechanisms for living with type one. With ICD's expert knowledge, enthusiastic instructors, and exciting activities you are sure to walk away with a deeper understanding of your potential.
Who: This event is open to high school/post secondary students, and young adults living with type 1 diabetes, ages 14+. Those interested in bringing a friend without T1D are welcome to!
Where: Saskatoon, SK
When: November 1-2, 2025 (6pm start - 4pm end)

Accommodations: In addition to our regular retreat agenda, with opportunities to build your peer support network, and activate your leadership skills, we will be taking part in Sunday’s Growing with Diabetes Conference, held annually at the University of Saskatchewan, to connect with and feel the support of our T1D community We will be staying close to the conference venue, most likely in airbnb as we have other years. This info will be sent to you closer to the event date. There will be separate sleeping accommodation based on gender of participants, please let us know if you have any concerns with us being able to aptly accommodate your needs.Each retreat will utilize the unique features of the site and available activities. Be prepared to be outside in various weather conditions and to work closely with your peers and the ICD leadership team.

We focus on how to manage diabetes effectively in the midst of real life challenges and use active programs to bring strategies to life. If you’re looking to build on your diabetes skills or see why 100% of participants surveyed reported transformative or positive impacts, come pay us a visit.
Support: Come out and feel the support from others who understand what you are going through and will share in this learning experience. Learn something about yourself and connect with other T1Ds who understand the ins and outs of diabetes management. This is a great opportunity to take in picturesque views and discover what you can accomplish with the right support.
We can accommodate all manners of food allergy, celiac disease and many other challenges (physical and mental), so don’t be afraid to reach out and talk with our leadership team to develop a plan for an experience of a lifetime!
