What is Type 1 diabetes?
Type 1 (juvenile) diabetes strikes children suddenly, makes them dependent on injected or pumped insulin for life, and carries the constant threat of devastating complications. While diagnosis most often occurs in childhood and adolescence, it can and does strike adults as well.
What is JDRF doing about it?
The mission of JDRF is to find a cure for diabetes and its complications through the support of research.
More than 85 percent of JDRF's expenditures directly support research and research-related education.
