JOIN US at the Breakthrough T1D Community Summit (formerly TypeOneNation) on February 22, 2025, in Rosemont! We welcome your participation as an adult, caregiver, parent attendee, teen helper, or kid camper. This Summit unites the type 1 diabetes (T1D) community to share, learn, engage, and connect with other families in Illinois.
At the Summit, you will:
- Discover research advancements.
- Engage in discussions with experts.
- Network with others living with T1D.
- Visit a Vendor Village.
- Bring your stuffies to the doctor at our Rufus Clinic.
The educational sessions will focus on T1D care and management, tailored to various audiences. Excitingly new for 2025, kids will enjoy camp programming while parents, caregivers, grandparents, and friends attend sessions and have a dedicated morning for themselves. Campers will participate in activities and special sessions designed just for them, and our teens will serve as role models for the younger attendees.
Please register adults and campers here, and we will provide more information to the registrants of youth. For any questions, please contact us at lriley@breakthroughT1d.org.
We look forward to seeing you in February 2025!
