Description
Founded in February 2015 -- by Juliet de Baubigny, Nick Jonas, Sam Talbot and Sarah Lucas -- Beyond Type 1 creates and funds a portfolio of programs, technologies and innovations that those living with diabetes need to manage, live and thrive. Our goal is to highlight the brilliance of those fighting this disease every day while always working toward ensuring a cure is on its way.
We aim to be provocative, inclusive and disruptive: putting a face on this disease, clearing up misunderstandings about who is affected by diabetes and eradicating the stigma that comes from living with a chronic disease. We recognize there is a different narrative to be told: that of a strong empowered community living a powerful life beyond the diagnosis.
