Save the Date for JDRF 2015 Children’s Congress!

JDRF 2015 Children’s Congress, our ninth biennial event held for children aged 4-17 living with type 1 diabetes (T1D), will take place in Washington, D.C. on July 13-15, 2015. More than 150 children from across the country will have the unique and empowering opportunity to share their story of living with T1D to Members of Congress to help them understand why research for better treatments and a cure for T1D is so important.

Why should you apply to represent the Long Island Chapter at JDRF 2015 Children’s Congress? In addition to explaining what it is like to live with T1D during meetings with Members of Congress and their staff, you’ll make lifelong friendship with other kids with T1D from across the country and get to know our T1D celebrity role models!

If you are interested in participating in JDRF 2015 Children’s Congress, you must first complete an online application, which will be open until December 1st, 11:59pm Eastern at: http://cc.jdrf.org/apply. Children must be between the ages of 4 and 17 at the time of the event to apply.

Help us turn type one into type none by speaking up and sharing your personal story in Washington, D.C.! For more information, check out the Children’s Congress website at: http://cc.jdrf.org. If you have any questions, please contact the JDRF Advocacy Team at: childrenscongress@jdrf.org.
