5th Yes2College program - Enjoy!

This is the 5th program organized in Sacramento, CA oriented towards helping children with diabetes navigate their transition towards going to college and becoming a young adult. This program was conceived and created by Darshana Prakasam as a part of her MahaDarshan Leadership series in 2009. Ever since, the program has continued to thrive with contributions of other volunteers. This year program was co-hosted by Renae Leveille, a freshman nursing student at University of Portland, Oregon and a young adult with Diabetes. Manu Prakasam, a freshman at Miro Loma High School presented on the SAT and test-taking tips as a part of his growing program Onedayplease.org. Ceirra Foster, a freshman from Montana State University spoke about the first year student in college. The program was fortunate enough to also have presentations from Eric Planzer, Mitchell Schellinger and the accomplished triathlete and Iron Man, Jay Hewitt.
