Congratulations to the following Michigan Delagates for 2007:
The 2007 JDRF Children's Congress / June 17-20, 2007.
JDRF's Children's Congress gives children with type 1 diabetes a unique and empowering opportunity to help Members of Congress understand what life with juvenile diabetes is like and why research to find the cure for diabetes and its complications is so critical.
