We are so proud to have Lorynn Watt represent the JDRF Eastern PA Chapter last week in Washington, D.C. She spoke very well about why Congress should support T1D research at the JDRF 2017 Children’s Congress (listen to her statement towards the end of the video 23:14). 

Great job to Lorynn and all of children and celebrity advocates!

JDRF is one of the most effective grassroots advocacy organizations in the country because of people like you whose lives are touched by T1D. Through the years, your voices have shared with Congress how T1D affects you, your family and your community, leading to continued funding for research and regulatory policies that improve life for people with T1D until the day we find a cure.

If you are interested in meeting with your new Member(s) of Congress, please sign up now. Local JDRF volunteer leaders will organize the meetings and alert you when there is an upcoming opportunity in your area.
