Elizabeth Forrest, our founder, was honored with a CWD Journey Award recognizing 25 years of living with Type 1 Diabetes.

While a medal marks the milestone, it can never fully capture the countless decisions, challenges, resilience, and strength required every single day. For 25 years, she has navigated life with courage, determination, and grace—an achievement worthy of celebration.

Thank you to Children with Diabetes (CWD) and Jeff Hitchcock for recognizing the incredible journeys of those living with Type 1 Diabetes.

Touched by Type 1 knows that to be understood is to feel less alone.

We’re proud to offer support and resources to people with type 1 diabetes everywhere, but one of the greatest gifts is finding a community of people who just get it 💜

One conversation can change everything. One connection can bring hope back into focus. One person who truly understands what life with type 1 diabetes feels like can remind you that you don’t have to carry it alone.
