CAPACITY Registry

The CAPACITY Registry gathers data about childhood diabetes from clinics across Canada. Our goal is to use this information to identify gaps or inequities in care. By understanding where these gaps exist, we can take steps to close them and better meet the needs of all children and youth living with diabetes. Data from the CAPACITY Registry will support healthcare professionals and policymakers in making informed decisions that lead to real, measurable improvements in care for children, youth and their families, living with diabetes. The goal of the CAPACITY Registry Harmonization Initiative is to support: - **Audit & Feedback**: finding ways to improve pediatric diabetes care by comparing data across different centres in Canada. - **Quality improvement**: helping centres make ongoing improvements in the care they provide. - **Research**: to improve diabetes care for children and youth across Canada. - **Advocacy**: promoting and improving the health and healthcare of children and youth through education, collaboration, and protecting patient rights. - **Policy analysis**: ensuring that healthcare policies support consistent care, affordable treatment, and proper support so children and youth living with chronic illnesses can stay healthy and grow up well. The project aims to ensure that every child and youth, no matter where they live, has access to high-quality, effective diabetes care.
