T1 Guardians was created by parents of children living with Type 1 Diabetes who understood the daily challenges firsthand. What started as a small group of families has grown into a supportive community dedicated to helping children feel safer, stronger, and less alone.
Through connection, resources, and awareness, we help families discover the life-changing bond between children and diabetic alert dogs.

Diabetic alert dogs can detect dangerous changes in blood sugar levels via scent often before symptoms arise or technology alerts. For children living with Type 1 Diabetes, these incredible dogs provide safety, companionship, and confidence every day.
Through T1 Guardians, families can learn about diabetic alert dogs and the powerful bond they create with children.
Together we can support children living with Type 1 Diabetes and the families who care for them.
