Why am I being asked to complete self-identification questions?

The following questions are optional. The collection of self-identification data is a central piece of ICD's commitment to equity, diversity and inclusion(EDI). This information increases our capacity to monitor progress on increasing EDI in our programs, to recognize and remove barriers, and to design new measures to achieve greater EDI.

Indigenous identity: Do you identify as an Indigenous person? (First Nation, Métis, or Inuk/Inuit)

Visible Minority Identity: Do you identify as a member of a visible minority? (defined as persons, other than Aboriginal peoples, who are non-Caucasian in race or non-white in colour)

ICD Gear

Our skull logo was designed by founder Chris Jarvis when he and 11 type one teammates took on the Canadian Death Race. One of the world's toughest ultramarathons in the Rocky Mountains, the team covered 445 km in just 24 hours. The crossed needles signify that insulin allows us to take on any challenge, in the gym, in sport and on the trail.
