Government Day convenes approximately 175 standout grassroots advocates in Washington, D.C., each year for four days of education, fellowship building, and celebration. Together, you'll share the impact of type 1 diabetes on your life with Members of Congress and advocate for legislation and policies that support the T1D community.

Breakthrough T1D Government Day will take place March 15 – 18, 2026 in Washington, D.C. We look forward to advancing our mission together on Capitol Hill!
