This summer, we’ve been collecting good news from the T1D community in an effort to spread optimism during a difficult time, as we navigate the challenges of COVID-19. Not only will this bring positive vibes to our JDRF community, but we especially hope it helps the newly diagnosed families who need some inspirational messages during this time!
