At JDRF, protecting the health and safety of our Journey for T1D guests, donors, volunteers and staff remains a top priority as we prepare to come together in person to advance the mission we all share. For this reason, we are requiring all attendees and volunteers to provide proof of vaccination or a negative COVID test prior to attending the JDRF Journey for T1D.

We look forward to providing a positive experience for all event attendees. To help with that, please come prepared to show one of the following during the event check-in process:

• An official, government-issued vaccination card listing the guest’s name and dates the last dose was administered

• A photo or digital version of an official government-issued vaccination card listing the guest’s name and dates the last dose was administered

• A printed or digital negative COVID-19 PCR or antigen test (rapid test) administered by a healthcare professional with 72 hours to a guest’s given event that includes the guest’s name and date the last test was administered. 

Thank you for your cooperation and understanding as we work to provide a safe and inspiring event. With your continued support, we move closer to curing T1D every day.

If you have any questions, please contact Jessie Jimenez-Schlicht at 248-936-1281 / 248-717-1657 or jjimenez@jdrf.org.
