Rebecca Giraldo '29 to Represent Florida at 2023 Children’s Congress in Washington, D.C.

Congratulations to sixth-grader Rebecca Giraldo who has been chosen to represent the state of Florida at JDRF’s 2023 Children’s Congress in Washington, D.C. this summer.⁠

Every two years, more than 160 youth gather in Washington, D.C. to meet face-to-face with some of the top decision-makers in the U.S. government. The youth represent all 50 states and the District of Columbia. The JDRF Children’s Congress Delegates enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to help Members of Congress understand what life with T1D is like and why research to fund life-changing therapies until a cure can be found is so critical. They speak up on behalf of the millions of people living with T1D and the families and friends who love them.⁠
