Hello again JDRF Advocates!

Even though February was a short month, JDRF Advocacy was busier than ever! I know that you are all anxious to find out what you may have missed last month:

• We launched our New Member Outreach Campaign in January, and February brought us our first meeting! It was held in Alabama with new Representative Martha Roby (R-AL-2). We also highlighted meetings that JDRF Advocates held with Representative Billy Long (R-MO-7) and Representative Francesco Canseco (R-TX-23). You can check out some of the other meetings that have been completed here, and remember to share your own NMOI experiences!

• Campbell took the time to share the latest on the FDA and the Artificial Pancreas. She also provided an explanation as to why we engage on regulatory issues. Check out her post and leave your comments here.

• JDRF Advocacy is providing you with the opportunity to be a part of our annual Government Day event this year. Click here to find out how!

• One of our Grassroots Leadership Team members, Jill Geisendorfer, introduced herself to readers through telling her story. Click here to find out more about Jill and leave her a message. Be on the lookout for introductions of other GLT members!
