About Us

Blue Circle Health is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization dedicated to improving the health of people with type 1 diabetes (T1D), a chronic autoimmune condition in which the body doesn’t produce insulin. T1D affects more than 2 million people in the US and many face barriers to the care, education, medication, and supplies needed to manage their condition. 

Blue Circle Health provides virtual care, education, and support for adults with T1D, at no cost to them. Because T1D is a 24/7 condition that is largely self-managed, we educate and empower people with T1D to ensure they have the skills, tools, and confidence to manage their condition. Our whole-person approach includes medical care, diabetes education, peer coaching, diabetes supportive counseling, insurance navigation, supplies and medication, and referrals to community resources that can help with access to housing, employment and food.

Funded by The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust, Blue Circle’s charge is to design and deliver care that improves the health of people with T1D, while proving to the T1D community that better models of care are both needed and feasible.

We’re seeking mission-driven professionals to help us create a  healthcare delivery and support model that people deserve.
