The Type 1 Diabetes Club of Columbia University

We are a community of Type 1 Diabetics who support each other managing our health-care needs in a college environment.

Our mission is to foster a community of like-minded diabetics, and a sense of physical and emotional well-being in our disease-management.  

Balancing Type 1 Diabetes in a high pressure environment is not easy. Through our individual experiences, we hope to share tips and tricks for better management, and to minimize health risks, elevating our quality of life as college students. 

We are a chapter of the College Diabetes Link, and hope to connect with students in the broader Tri-State area. We are also connected to certain outreach and volunteer organizations and plan to provide students with opportunities to get involved with the greater Type 1 community.
