Dear ,

Thank you for your advocacy efforts on behalf of JDRF!  We are pleased to report that early this morning, the U.S. Senate passed legislation which includes a one-year renewal of the Special Diabetes Program (SDP) at the current funding level of $150 million annually.

The SDP funds research through the National Institutes of Health which helps accelerate progress to cure, treat, and prevent type 1 diabetes (T1D).  Renewing the SDP was JDRF's top legislative priority this year and it was your advocacy on behalf of everyone affected by T1D which brought us this far. Thank you!

The U.S. House is expected to vote on the legislation shortly.  We will keep you posted on developments and will let you know when you can contact your Members of Congress to say thank you.

We greatly appreciate all that you do.

Happy New Year,

JDRF Advocacy
