GLEN ELLYN, Ill. (WLS) -- A local organization is taking action to improve the lives of all people living with type 1 diabetes.

The leading research and advocacy organization JDRF is now Breakthrough T1D. A series of major fundraising events for the T1D community.

On Sunday, dozens showed up at the College of Dupage. This was the second of three total events the organization is hosting.

Last week they walked along Montrose Harbor. Next weekend the organization will be in Peoria.
