Carb DM’s mission is to build a supportive community that improves the quality of life and health of all those affected by type 1 diabetes (T1D). The Carb DM community fosters connections among people with diabetes, their loved ones, and medical professionals, promotes learning, and develops strategies for thriving with type 1 diabetes.

Often diagnosed in children, but also diagnosed in adults, the management of type 1 diabetes requires a round the clock balancing of carbohydrates, exercise, and insulin dosing, and many other factors that affect blood sugar levels, 24/7/365 days a year. Carb DM aims to ease the burden of type 1 diabetes by bringing children, teens, adults, and their loved ones together, face-to-face, to help normalize the experience of living with type 1 diabetes, sharing tips and advice, providing ongoing support and access to high-quality education.
