People who care about diabetes are an impressive bunch. They’re actors and advocates, athletes, chefs, musicians, techies, and more. Here we highlight a few individuals who are making things happen. They’re raising awareness about the condition, advocating for your rights, inventing ways to make life with diabetes a little bit easier, and inspiring others to reach for their dreams. For all of that, and the millions involved with the cause—including you—we are grateful.
