A small glimpse into our 2026 ConnecT1D Adult Retreat 💙

April 17–19 was centered around connection, shared experiences, and creating space for adults living with Type 1 diabetes to come together—through meaningful conversations, time outdoors, and simply being in community with people who truly get it.

We’re so grateful to everyone who showed up, shared their stories, and helped make this retreat what it was. Your presence is what makes this community so special.

More moments to come—stay tuned.

And we’re already looking forward to next year 🎉

We need volunteers! Know anyone who might be interested?

Looking to use your clinical skills in a way that’s hands-on, meaningful, and deeply impactful? Type 1 United is seeking medical volunteers to join us at Camp Leo, where you’ll help provide safe, supportive care for campers living with Type 1 diabetes—all while being part of a community that truly understands.

This is a 4–6 day, live-in volunteer experience where you’ll:

Support a cabin of 6–10 campers
Provide ongoing diabetes management and general medical care
Collaborate with a team of experienced medical professionals
Help create a space where diabetes becomes the norm—not the exception

We’re looking for:

RN, LPN, ARNP, MD, EMT, Pharmacist (PharmD/RPh), Registered Dietitian—and nursing or medical students with relevant experience or strong interest in diabetes care.

Whether you’re building clinical experience, exploring pediatrics or endocrinology, or simply looking to give back in a meaningful way—this is an opportunity to grow while making a real difference.

🩺 Calling Medical Professionals — Make a Real Impact This Summer

At Camp Leo, you’re not just volunteering — you’re leading care for children living with Type 1 diabetes.

Our medical volunteers are at the heart of everything we do:
• Managing daily diabetes care & treatment decisions
• Monitoring blood glucose & responding in real time
• Collaborating with physicians & medical leads
• Supporting campers’ safety, confidence, and independence
You’ll work directly with a small group of campers, helping them navigate life with T1D — safely, confidently, and with a sense of belonging.

We’re currently seeking:
RNs, LPNs, NPs, MDs, Pharmacists, Dietitians, EMTs & Medical Students
This is hands-on, meaningful work — where your clinical skills directly shape a child’s experience.

Not long ago, careers in aviation weren’t accessible to people living with type 1 diabetes. Today, that’s changed—and the sky is truly open. ✈️

We’re excited to share an opportunity for youth in our community to explore what’s possible.

Alaska Airlines Aviation Day invites youth ages 11–18 to step inside the world of aviation—through hands-on activities, real conversations, and a chance to see themselves in roles like pilot, engineer, dispatcher, and more.

This year, a group specifically for youth living with T1D will be attending together—creating space for connection, confidence, and possibility.

Just 23 days to go 🥳🎉

April 17–19 is right around the corner—and this weekend has become something really special.
It’s not just a getaway. It’s space to reconnect with yourself and with people who truly understand life with Type 1.

The kind of conversations that don’t need explaining. The kind of laughter that feels easy. The kind of support that stays with you long after the weekend ends.

Every year, this community shows up for each other in ways that are hard to put into words—but deeply felt.

✨ The full agenda is now live—feel free to read through it or download a copy to explore what the weekend will hold. 💙

✨ Session Highlight - Connect1D Adult Retreat✨

Over the past decade, community has become one of our most powerful tools—for sharing knowledge, solving problems, and reminding one another that we’re not alone.

In this panel conversation, community leaders and members reflect on how connection has shaped the last 10 years and explore what it will take to build resilient, supportive, and impactful communities in the decade ahead.

This session invites reflection, dialogue, and forward-thinking ideas on how we protect what makes community powerful while shaping spaces that are sustainable, inclusive, and strong for the next 10 years.
