Type 1 Diabetes doesn’t always give you time to prepare. One moment everything is fine, and the next you’re staring down an empty insulin vial or an unexpected hospital bill. In those moments, when the need is urgent and time matters, families across the Texas Panhandle have turned to TOADS.

When You Need Help Fast

Emergencies come in many forms. Maybe your child’s insulin spoiled after a power outage. Maybe a job change disrupted your insurance coverage. Or maybe you’re simply overwhelmed and unsure what to do next. These are real situations that many families face — and no one should have to navigate them alone.

TOADS provides emergency support for families who need help right now. That includes access to life-saving insulin, urgent doctor visits, transportation assistance, and connection to other essential resources. We move quickly because we know diabetes doesn’t wait.
