As part of both the DC and MD Galas, we are collecting photos of adults and children in our community who are living with type 1. We will use the photos to create a visual montage to be shown during the program. We would love for each interested family to submit a photo that can be included with the T1D diagnosis date. Please send the photo to jdrfcapitol@gmail.com no later than October 26th.
