Team Type 1

Description

Team Type 1 (TT1) Foundation was established with the mission to “instill hope and inspiration for people around the world affected by diabetes.” We believe that with appropriate diet, exercise, treatment and technology, anyone with diabetes can achieve their dreams. Founded in 2005 by Phil Southerland and Joe Eldridge, TT1 operated as a grassroots initiative to inspire those with diabetes to better manage their disease.

Dr. Biljana Southerland is the Program Director of Medical and Governmental Affairs for the Team Type 1 Foundation and Chief Consultant for the World Health Organization, International Diabetes Center and Mayo Clinic. Her significant experience in shaping public health policy and working with governmental health agencies provides clear direction for the Fou ndation’s mission of achieving global access to medicine, education and empowerment for everyone affected by diabetes.

“More than 371 million people worldwide have diabetes and many are needlessly suffering from preventable complications or even death, simply because they do not have access to the medication or tools necessary to manage their condition,” said Dr.
