Third spaces. A place of comfort and sharing that we all can create for those we know are struggling.

During Mental Health Awareness Month, we’re highlighting Third Places that make connection feel possible. Spaces like Gabriel’s Challenge offer a welcoming, non-clinical environment where people can show up at their own pace, without pressure, and begin building support through dignity, choice, and lived experience.

Sometimes the first step is simply having a place to start.

Sharing for our Washington State friends!

We need volunteers! Know anyone who might be interested?

Looking to use your clinical skills in a way that’s hands-on, meaningful, and deeply impactful? Type 1 United is seeking medical volunteers to join us at Camp Leo, where you’ll help provide safe, supportive care for campers living with Type 1 diabetes—all while being part of a community that truly understands.

This is a 4–6 day, live-in volunteer experience where you’ll:

Support a cabin of 6–10 campers
Provide ongoing diabetes management and general medical care
Collaborate with a team of experienced medical professionals
Help create a space where diabetes becomes the norm—not the exception

We’re looking for:

RN, LPN, ARNP, MD, EMT, Pharmacist (PharmD/RPh), Registered Dietitian—and nursing or medical students with relevant experience or strong interest in diabetes care.

Whether you’re building clinical experience, exploring pediatrics or endocrinology, or simply looking to give back in a meaningful way—this is an opportunity to grow while making a real difference.
