Danielle was diagnosed with T1D 14 years ago. “Having this gorgeous Lokai to remind me to embrace the highs & lows of life (and T1D!) has been amazing. Plus $1 from each bracelet sold goes to #JDRF & their mission to improve MY life with #T1D.” @livelokai https://t.co/3q6vHwnQIn

We’re pleased to report that President Trump signed the continuing resolution that provides a short-term, $21.5 mil extension of the Special Diabetes Program (SDP), & keeps the Federal government operating through Nov. 21. https://t.co/iOEuHd03vq

"[JDRF & @BeyondType1] are different organizations, but we are all here for the same reason: To cure this disease and improve the lives of those living with #T1D today. Working together, we aim to get there faster” @aaronjkowalski, PhD, @JDRFceo: https://t.co/isH1MtIH4l #JDRFxBT1

This patch would provide nearly $21.5 million for critical #T1D research while Congress works to pass a longer-term SDP renewal, and an agreement on the Federal budget for this fiscal year. The President is expected to sign the resolution within the next few days.

The U.S. Senate just passed a short-term extension of the Special Diabetes Program (SDP) as part of a continuing resolution that would keep the Federal government operating through November 21.

The next action is for the U.S. Senate to consider the continuing resolution next week, & several steps remain to secure a full, multi-year renewal. We will need your help along the way! Stay active on social using #RenewSDP, sharing why this critical funding is important to you!

This week the U.S. House of Representatives took an important step in passing a short-term extension of the Special Diabetes Program as part of a continuing resolution that would keep the Federal government operating through Nov. 21, & provide nearly $21.5 mil for #T1D research.

The toll of type 1 diabetes (T1D) doesn’t stop at the
physical—it can affect us mentally and emotionally as well. JDRF has some great videos on our YouTube channel.

On Tuesday, the FDA approved the first pre-mixed, pre-filled liquid glucagon formulation for use with either a pre-filled syringe (GVOKE PFS) or an auto-injector (GVOKE HypoPenTM.) @XerisPharma created the product to treat severe hypoglycemia--a daily concern for people with T1D.
