Thank you for attending our first JDRF TypeOneNation Summit!

Thank you for attending our first JDRF TypeOneNation Summit! I hope you found the day to be educational, enlightening and inspiring. Our goal is to provide as much practical information as possible while infusing a sense of hope, optimism and excitement about the future of type one diabetes (T1D) research and advances.

TypeOneNation Summit provides the T1D community a unique opportunity to meet and mingle in an educational setting. I encourage you to complete our event survey and provide feedback, allowing us to make our event even better next year!

If you are interested in getting involved with our JDRF chapter ā€“ whether you want to ride for the cure, volunteer in our office or serve on our Outreach Committee ā€“ please complete our JDRF Chapter Interest Form. Completed interest forms can be emailed or mailed to our chapter.

The secret of JDRFā€™s remarkable progress toward our ultimate goal of a world without T1D is one thing: you. We have a plan to keep people with T1D healthy and safe until we deliver prevention and a cureā€”and you play the most important part.

So, I also invite you to consider taking part in our T1D Looks Like Me challenge to help us raise $125,000 in honor of the 1.25 million Americans living with T1D. This challenge is a simple, powerful and interactive way to highlight how T1D affects millions of people all around the world, including right here in our own backyard. If you would like to raise funds for our T1D Looks Like Me challenge, check out our NDAM Toolkit for ideas and inspirations.

And finally, if you havenā€™t yet, I encourage you to raise awareness during National Diabetes Awareness Month by creating your own T1D footprint. Share your footprint with your friends, family and the chapter on Facebook, Twitter or Instagram.
