THE BETES Organization

Our mission is to help people with chronic conditions form a functioning and flourishing relationship with their health through unique and effective theater-driven programming.  

By framing disease as a teacher rather than an enemy and engaging in active, deep listening, our work enables people to discover their own lessons and find meaning in their struggles.

Our programs offer transformative experiences through theater and metaphor, enlivening people’s imaginations and allowing for dialogue and discovery to emerge.

We currently focus on all sides of the diabetes ecosystem – patients young and old, caregivers, clinicians and industry. Together, we will create a culture of empathy and curiosity where no person with a health condition feels stigmatized, unvalued, or alone.
