ABOUT TYPE 1 DIABETES 
Type 1 diabetes (T1D) is an autoimmune disease that, without warning, strikes people of all ages, from infancy through adulthood. T1D has nothing to do with diet or lifestyle and it cannot be prevented. T1D occurs when the body’s immune system attacks and destroys the insulin-producing cells in the pancreas. Insulin is essential for survival and T1D’s cannot live without it. At present there is no cure. T1D causes lifelong dependence on insulin and carries the constant worry of life-threatening complications. It requires intensive, never-ending management. 

ABOUT JDRF 
JDRF is the world’s largest nonprofit funder of type 1 diabetes research and is leading the fight against type 1 diabetes (T1D).  JDRF funds research, advocates for policies that accelerate access to new therapies, and provides a support network for millions of people around the world impacted by T1D.  JDRF collaborates with a wide spectrum of partners and is the only organization with the scientific resources, regulatory influence, and a working plan to bring life-changing therapies from the lab to the T1D community. JDRF is the organization that will turn #TypeOneIntoTypeNone.
