This year, World Health Day is dedicated to diabetes (Type 1 and Type 2), and co-founders of Beyond Type 1, Nick Jonas and Sarah Lucas, are helping to spread awareness about the disease. The nonprofit, created just last year, aims to educate others and also ensure a better future for those living with Type 1. Currently, 422 million people have diabetes, and yet it isn’t common knowledge what the differences even are between types. CEO Sarah Lucas explains that while the organization improves the lives today of those with the illness, it also is “working to ensure a cure is on its way tomorrow.”
