Find your CommuniT1D

The process

01

Fill out a survey

We will ask you questions about you, the role T1D plays in your life, and when you might be available for online meetings about once a month.

02

Tell us what you prefer

Join an existing group, volunteer to lead a new group, and/or join the waiting list to learn when new groups are formed.

03

We match you with a group

Based on your answers, we find one or more groups for you. We want to match people who can meet at the same time, speak the same language, have things in common, and will get along well.

04

You decide if it works for you

You attend meetings with others and decide if it works for you. If you are making friends and finding the meetings helpful, great! If not, we will work to find a better match for you.
