Our Mission is to revolutionize Type 1 diabetes care through data-driven, patient-centered care.

About The Rising T1DE Alliance 

The Rising T1DE Alliance (RTA) is a collective of like-minded organizations committed to revolutionizing type 1 diabetes care through data-driven, patient-centered care. Our approach is proactive, not reactive. Founded in 2016 at Children's Mercy in Kansas City through a grant from The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust (Helmsley), RTA began its innovation journey with a focus on proactively identifying and addressing clinical risks through actionable, timely insights. Follow-on funding in 2020 helped create the Diabetes Data Dock (D-Data Dock), a cloud-based population health management software that integrates data from the electronic health record (EHR), self-management devices, patient reported outcome surveys, and other sources. In 2024, a new grant from Helmsley added Ann & Robert H. Lurie Children’s Hospital of Chicago to RTA’s leadership team to create a dissemination framework to share the technologies, methods, and workflows developed by RTA across the diabetes ecosystem. 

Today, RTA is focused on: 

  • Supporting integration of diabetes data into the EHR, incorporating many of the standards and recommendations developed by the Integration of Continuous Glucose Monitoring Data into the Electronic Health Record (iCoDE) Project. 
  • Packaging the D-Data Dock software to make it simple and cost effective to share and deploy. 
  • Advancing our predictive models and care interventions to make them more effective. 
  • Developing toolkits to support other organizations to adopt both our technologies and rapid learning methodology to integrate data into iterative care model design. 
  • Building a supportive community of innovators interested in optimizing diabetes population health management and creating sustainable operational models to support it. 

Together, we are reimagining diabetes care into a new paradigm that continuously and seamlessly integrates data, technology, and personalized care delivery. Our goal is to build and disseminate the technologies and practices to enable every healthcare organization to deliver the high quality, data-driven care that every person with diabetes deserves.
