Serena Valentine has been living with Type 2 diabetes for 22 years. Originally misdiagnosed with Type 1 diabetes, she endured years of unnecessary treatments, emergency room visits, and medical challenges before learning her correct diagnosis. Through her personal journey, Serena developed a deep passion for educating others about diabetes and raising awareness within the community. She is committed to helping people better understand the illness and the importance of proper care and knowledge after diagnosis.

“I had the passion to educate our community about an illness that is so widely spread and becoming more and more common every day. It’s because of what people do not know — even after being diagnosed, people still don’t quite understand,” Serena said.

This is a free event. Please invite your family and friends!
