WASHINGTON, Aug. 21 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- Teen pop idol Nick Jonas, the youngest member of the Grammy-nominated pop rock band the Jonas Brothers, will address a National Press Club luncheon on Monday, August 24.

As diabetes ambassador with Bayer Diabetes Care, the 16-year-old singer/songwriter has launched a national campaign to provide young people and their families with motivation and support to simplify life with diabetes. In June, he testified before Congress to call for support of diabetes research funding. He wrote the song "A Little Bit Longer" to inspire those with diabetes to live their lives to the fullest. Last year, The Change for the Children Foundation, founded by Nick and brothers Kevin and Joe to help children facing adversity, granted approximately $750,000 to diabetes research and treatment programs. Nick also hosts a website (www.NicksSimpleWins.com) to help inspire young people with diabetes to achieve small, everyday victories while managing their disease.

The National Press Club luncheon will begin promptly at 12:30 p.m. and Nick Jonas' remarks will begin just after 1:00 p.m., followed by a question-and-answer session.

A live streaming webcast of the program will be available at www.press.org at 1:00 p.m. Pre-register for the webcast at '/>"/>
