Across the state, people are gearing up for the annual One Walk benefitting the Arkansas chapter of the Juvenile Diabetes Research Foundation.
Formerly known as the Walk to Cure Diabetes, the JDRF One Walk will once again take over Dickey-Stephens Park in North Little Rock on Sunday, Oct. 8., gathering participants to promote a singular goal: creating a world without Type 1 diabetes.
The day includes food and drinks, vendors, a T-shirt contest and a group walk on the River Trail on a route designed to accommodate kids, adults, dogs, strollers and any other participants.
Read this feature from our April 2016 issue to learn more about life with T1D for local kids.
