Why the Young Adult Conference matters: 

“It was incredible to learn about the research being conducted to improve lives and cure T1D as well as meet others like myself. I grew as a person and reaffirmed that I want to make a positive impact on others in whatever profession I end up in.” – Ashley, YAC Orlando 2019 Attendee 

The Breakthrough T1D – Beyond Type 1 Alliance combines the power of Breakthrough T1D, the leading global organization funding T1D research, and  Beyond Type 1, the organization with the largest online community of any diabetes nonprofit. The Young Adults Conference provides the opportunity to establish confidence with your T1D, find the support you need, and build a network of lifelong friends.
