In June, JDRF’s Annual Conference will be held in Washington, D.C. and you can help us get ready for it – visit our call-to-action page and send a message of thanks to Members of Congress who supported the Special Diabetes Program (SDP) letter recently issued by the House and Senate Diabetes Caucuses.

JDRF’s volunteer leaders and staff will ask Congress to continue its support for the Special Diabetes Program during their time in Washington and your messages of thanks before they get here would allow them to have more effective meetings. Please send the ‘thank you’ email now; it’ll only take 30 seconds!

As of today, 270 House members and 71 Senate members have signed on to the SDP letter. Thank them for recognizing the importance of this vital diabetes research funding program and read more about it on the call-to-action page!

As always, please help us spread the word by sharing this blog-post via email or sharing this link on your favorite social media site: http://bit.ly/IeP8Xt
