WHAT IS SCREENING ALL ABOUT?

​

ASK is a FREE health screening for Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) and Celiac Disease for ALL US children (ages 1–17) including those with NO family history of either disease.
 

• When you sign up for screening through the ASK Program, a small amount of blood will be collected
   

• This blood will be tested for markers, called autoantibodies, which are the first signs of type 1 diabetes and/or celiac
   

• You will be contacted with the results of the screening
   

• If the results are positive, we would confirm these results and provide free follow-up; the ASK Follow-Up Program is there for you if your child is screened positive

​

Your participation in the ASK Research Program could help change the standards for pediatric care by helping scientists at the Barbara Davis Center for Diabetes assess the benefits and cost-effectiveness of universal screening for Type 1 Diabetes and Celiac Disease — the two most common autoimmune diseases of childhood.

Know your child's status so you can be prepared.
