Identifier	Return Reference	Explanation
II-B		Advocacy plays an integral role in our mission. The American Diabetes Associations advocacy efforts give people with diabetes, their families and health care professionals the power to influence public policy issues that affect people with diabetes at the local, state and national levels. From Capitol Hill to statehouses around the country, the Association works tirelessly to promote laws and policies that meet the needs of people who have, or are at risk for, diabetes. In addition, the American Diabetes Association leads the charge at both the federal and state levels calling for increased funding for vital research and prevention programs and improving access to affordable, quality health care. The Association has trained advocates around the country who represent those with diabetes who need a raised voice to protect their rights at school, work and elsewhere in their lives. A growing volunteer network of attorneys, healthcare professionals and advanced school advocates help thousands facing discrimination because of their diabetes. The primary goals of the American Diabetes Associations Government Affairs Advocacy efforts are to Increase federal and state funding for diabetes prevention, treatment and research. Prevent diabetes through advocacy of increased funding and raising awareness on National, state, and local levels. Improve the availability of accessible, adequate and affordable health care. End the discrimination against people with diabetes face at school, work and elsewhere in their lives. In 2012, the Association continued its leadership role in promoting equal employment opportunity for people with diabetes. Years of litigation culminated with ending a blanket ban at the Federal Bureau of Investigation that had prohibited those using insulin injections from being Special Agents the National Fire Protection Association adopted fairer standards for firefighters with diabetes and the Association scored victories in several states securing safe and fair rules for driving by people with diabetes. Through legislative, regulatory and litigation victories in Alaska, Georgia, Louisiana, and the District of Columbia, four more states meet the key tenets of our Safe at School campaign through access to insulin and glucagon and appropriate self care. In addition, legislation in Connecticut expanded access to emergency and self-care and we successfully strengthened school regulations in prohibiting segregation in Florida. A back to school promotional campaign included social media, website promotion, fundraising efforts, a petition drive and a radio media tour reaching 3.5 million listeners. In addition, The Association increased its advocacy efforts in reaching out to the health care community through a series of articles in the Associations publications, Clinical Diabetes and Diabetes Care, focusing on prevention, health disparities, and the role of health care professionals in diabetes advocacy. The Association also created a new free toolkit for pediatric health care providers aimed at educating providers and their patient about diabetes care rights at school.

Identifier	Return Reference	Explanation
I	2	The American Diabetes Association provides grant funding for Research grants to the American Diabetes Association Research Foundation. The American Diabetes Association closely monitors the use of all grant funds. Each grantee is required to submit an Annual Progress Report, which includes a scientific and a financial portion, 30 days after the end of each previously committed funding year. Each year of funding after the first is contingent upon approval of the Annual Progress Report and the availability of funds. If the complete report is not received within 90 days after the due date, the award will be terminated.
I	2	Continued...After the completion of the final year of the grant, a Cumulative Final Report, which includes a scientific and financial portion, is due within 60 days after the expiration date of the grant. If the complete final report is not received by the due date, the grantee will not be eligible to apply for any future American Diabetes Association Research Foundation awards until the obligations for the award are complete. This process is monitored and reviewed by the American Diabetes Association Scientific/Medical Management for award status and compliance.
I	2	Continued...The Association provides grants and scholarships for persons with diabetes and their families. Each summer, thousands of children have the opportunity to spend time at diabetes camp, meeting other children with diabetes, sharing their experiences, challenges, hopes and dreams. In 2012, the Associations Camp Program served 6,500 children and teens with type 1 and type 2 diabetes. 5,300 youth attended one of 40 Association camps in 25 states or at one of the camps hosted by their organizations that met the Asssociations high standards of care.
I	2	Continued... Camp provides an outdoor recreational experience in which the child for children with diabetes ages 8-18 can develop as a person while including informal education about the management of diabetes. Children are carefully supervised by a staff of doctors, nurses, dietitians, and other volunteers and staff. Program Evaluation and outcome measurement provide valuable data to the Association regarding camp programs and how to improve them.
I	2	Continued... An assessment/planning meeting including camp volunteers and staff leadership is held within two months of the conclusion of the camp session. At this time, camp results are evaluated and compared to goals. The strengths and weaknesses of the camp program, opportunities for growth and improvement, emerging issues and needs and the viability of continuation/initiation of new programs are evaluated.
I	2	Continued...In 2012, the American Diabetes Association launched the High Risk Minority Pilot Program grant mechanism to support community-based pilot projects targeting minority populations at risk for diabetes or diabetes-related complications. This mechanism is designed to benefit the Associations Latino and African American Initiatives programs by expanding the Associations reach to minority populations in underrepresented markets, refining research methodology to measure community-based impact among these populations, and establishing an evidence-base for program expansion. The overarching short-term goal is to improve diabetes prevention and treatment behaviors, and impact associated psychosocial variables among high-risk populations. The long-term goal is to improve health outcomes and reduce diabetes-related disparities.
I	2	Continued...One-year High Risk Minority Pilot Program grants were awarded to 4 recipients Alliance for Rural Community Health, Family Healthcare Network, Washington State University, and University of Florida. The Association closely monitors the proper use of the funds. Periodic financial and scientific progress and final reports at 6 and 12 months are required from each supported site. Program members also administer surveys before and after interventions to assess impact on knowledge and health behaviors. In addition, the American Diabetes Association provides grants to support Advocacy programs. In 2012, the Association awarded grant funds to The National Council of Asian Pacific Islander Physicians NCAPIP. The grant contribution was made in recognition of the coalitions outstanding work to address the disparate impact of diabetes on vulnerable populations. The Association monitors the use of the funds by maintaining an on-going communication and periodic financial reports.

		Form 990 Part I Line 1 Organizations mission/most significant activities The mission of the American Diabetes Association the Association is to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes. There are 26 million children and adults in the United States, or 8.3 of the population, who have diabetes. In addition, there are 79 million Americans who have pre-diabetes, a condition that occurs when a persons blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough for diagnosis of type 2 diabetes.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Together we Can Change the Future of Diabetes Diabetes is a devastating disease affecting nearly 26 million people are living with diabetes and another 79 million with prediabetes and are at risk of developing the disease. Our mission to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes is more urgent than ever. The American Diabetes Association is the moving force and trusted leader in the diabetes community. We are working tirelessly every day to provide targeted programs and lifesaving resources for those living with diabetes, their families, and health care professionals.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Research, Fostering Innovation, Propelling Innovation, Powering Discovery Throughout our history, we have been the leader in funding and supporting the research the world needs to stop the impact of diabetes. Weve funded nearly 4,000 projects and invested almost 640 million in diabetes research. In 2012, under the guidance and direction of the American Diabetes Association Research Foundation, Inc., we accelerated our commitment to research with the launch of Pathway to Stop Diabetes. This transformational program will inspire a new generation of scientists to apply their innovative thinking to the myriad issues of diabetes. Every hour, every day, someone, somewhere is working to move all of us closer to a cure. What unites diabetes researchers -- from graduate students to established scientists -- in the fight against diabetes A passion for their work. A desire to make a difference. And the American Diabetes Association. The Associations direct involvement in diabetes research extends back to the 1940s. Dr. Charles H. Best, one of four scientists credited with discovering insulin in the early 1920s, provided the Association with the framework and early leadership for a formalized program for diabetes research. And for more than half a century, the American Diabetes Association has been a world leader in supporting, funding, and honoring those who have dedicated themselves to diabetes research. The primary goals of the Associations Research Program are 1. Support the highest quality science across the broad spectrum of diabetes research. 2. Support investigators early in their careers to encourage them to dedicate their efforts to diabetes research. 3. Support innovative research with a high potential to have a significant impact for patients with diabetes. To understand the impact and outcomes associated with our research funding, we initiated a comprehensive baseline program assessment of investigators. In 2012, our findings were published in Diabetes and Diabetes Care The average Association grant leads to more than six publications, providing the foundation for future advancements. Our funding expands the field by attracting and retaining diabetes researchers, with 98 of Association-supported scientists still focused on our cause. 85 of researchers received subsequent financial support for their work within five years of their award. A significant return on investments 56 million in grants invested in researchers in 2005 resulted in 421 million of subsequent allowance for those same investigators by 2011 a 7.5-fold increase.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Types of Research Awards The American Diabetes Association Research Program supports basic and clinical/translational diabetes research aimed at preventing, treating and curing the disease. The diabetes research projects we support cover the spectrum from islet cell biology and transplantation techniques, to education and behavioral issues. Our core program offers investigator-initiated funding for basic science and clinical/translational research awards. Approximately 80 of Association-funded research falls under the Investigator-initiated Research Awards. Believing in the drive and potential of young and promising researchers, we also offer training awards to support scientists interested in diabetes research at various stages through their careers -- from medical school through assistant professorship. In fact, 98 of researchers supported by the Association continue their careers in diabetes research. In addition, the Association supports targeted and donor-driven research grants, funding specific program areas that are of interest to both the donor and the Association. The Career Development and Junior Faculty awards, for example, provide young scientists the salary and research support necessary to establish a track record of success that will allow them to receive increased funding opportunities from the National Institutes of Health NIH. Our mentor-based training awards match clinical students and recent doctoral candidates with outstanding senior scientists to help them strive towards careers in research. The Associations Research Program provides general grant support to both new and established investigators, specialized grants assisting clinical and innovative researchers, and opportunities for investigators as they advance their careers and the field of diabetes research and care.

		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Pathway to Stop Diabetes To accelerate the research needed to discover solutions and ultimately cure diabetes, the Association has launched a bold new initiative, Pathway to Stop Diabetes, to inspire a new generation of diabetes researchers. With a goal of funding 100 new diabetes researchers over the next decade, Pathway will provide crucial support to individuals focusing on innovative ideas and transformational approaches that will lead to new discoveries in diabetes prevention and treatment. In 2012, contributions to the campaign included 20 million from founding corporate sponsors and 800,000 from individuals for a total of 20.8 million. Grand totals for the campaign are now 27.2 million. Pathway to Stop Diabetes is in addition to ongoing Association research activities, and will significantly expand our research efforts by supporting innovative, basic, clinical, translation, epidemiological or health services research that is relevant to any type of diabetes, diabetes-related disease state of complication. Pathway will support creative scientists who are early in their career, or who are established but would like to expand their focus on diabetes research regardless of their current field of study. Through awards of 1.625 million over the course of five to seven years, the program will allow researchers to have the time and focus needed to explore new ideas. Promotion of Scientific Medical Research Scientific Sessions -- the worlds largest scientific and medical meeting focused on diabetes and its complications -- exemplifies the American Diabetes Associations leading role in the diabetes landscape, while functioning as an important platform for driving diabetes awareness. The Associations 72nd Scientific Sessions, held in Philadelphia June 8-12, 2012, focused on the latest basic and clinical science related to diabetes and its complications. This year, it brought together more than 17,700 scientists, health care professionals and industry representatives from 110 countries. Throughout the five days of the meeting, the program included over 3,000 educational presentations that included lectures, debates, case discussions and original research in oral and poster presentations. Presentations covered a broad range of topics which focused on the latest basic and clinical science research related to diabetes and its complications. In addition, more than 170 companies showcased their latest products and services in the exhibit hall.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Information- Imposing Numbers Nothing is more important in the fight against diabetes than knowledge. As the trusted voice in the diabetes community, the American Diabetes Association is committed to providing credible, relevant and up-to-date information, tools, resources and support to all people affected by diabetes, the health care professionals who work on their behalf, as well as the general public. Whether its diet and nutrition advice for someone recently diagnosed, or information on diabetes management at school for the parent of a child, the American Diabetes Association offers guidance and answers. From a toll-free, bi-lingual national call center to an award-winning magazine that tackles the latest news and offers stories of hope, as well as a comprehensive website, we are leading the way in diabetes information. We focus our efforts on three outcomes 1. Raising awareness of diabetes as a serious disease. 2. Raising the visibility of the epidemic of diabetes through awareness and education initiatives. 3. Reaching diverse groups of people who are at risk for or have diabetes, their families and health care professionals with the goal of reducing the incidence of diabetes and the impact of complications.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Professional Education Outreach The primary goal of the American Diabetes Associations professional education program is to affect the quality of treatment and improve patient outcomes for people with diabetes by providing quality education for those health care professionals who provide their care. The Association conducts professional education activities directed toward enhancing knowledge, competence, advancing skills and apprising health care professionals of the latest developments in diabetes research and clinical practice. The American Diabetes Association has been accredited to provide continuing education for health care professionals for more than 25 years and is accredited by seven accrediting boards. In 2012, the Association received Accreditation with Commendation from the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education ACCME MD board. Only 28 of organizations that are ACCME accredited providers have received this highest designation. In addition, the Association was awarded reaccreditation through the American Nurses Credentialing Center and the American Psychological Association. The Association developed several print and online Continuing Education CE programs focused on specific topics for improving clinical practice. These were delivered as case simulations and self-assessment modules. Through these programs, the Scientific Sessions, Postgraduate Course and Market-based CE programs, the Association reached more than 30,000 health care providers. Through its International Continuing Medical Education CME programs, the Association collaborated with other organizations and corporate partners to conduct educational programs in Spain, Hong Kong, India, China, Indonesia and the United Arab Emirates. These programs gave the Association the opportunity to provide high quality education in areas of the world where there is a high prevalence of diabetes. One program of particular note was the initiation of a program with the Ministry of Health and Endocrine Society in Indonesia for a train-the-trainer program that will reach 5,000 physicians over a five-year period. All of these international programs were developed with corporate support and provided additional revenue to the Association. The 59th Annual Advanced Postgraduate Course, held February 17-19, 2012 in San Francisco, brought together more than 600 health care professionals for educational sessions that focused on the translation of the latest diabetes research into clinical practice strategies for improving patient care and outcomes. The webcasts of the course were viewed by an additional 1,500 health care professionals. In conjunction with the Scientific Sessions in Philadelphia, the Association brought together physicians, physician assistants and nurse practitioners for a day-long program entitled Diabetes is Primary. This innovative educational activity was developed specifically for the primary care community and focused on clinical information and tools to improve outcomes in patients with diabetes. It was attended by 150 health care professionals.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Education Recognition Program Designed to ensure and promote quality education for people with diabetes, the American Diabetes Associations Education Recognition Program ERP began in 1986 with 35 recognized diabetes education programs. Today, the ERP features more than 3,500 program sites nationwide. In 2012, the number of programs using Chronicle Diabetes, an electronic health record for diabetes education offered to the Associations recognized programs, more than doubled, with almost 50,000 patient records currently available in the database. This provided a new opportunity for the ERP to share aggregate data at the 72nd Annual Scientific Sessions. The data included types of outcomes being collected in diabetes education programs, variety of diabetes education practice settings, types of educators involved in diabetes education and clinical outcomes of patients participating in self management education programs. This data informed subject matter experts who reviewed and revised the National Standards for Diabetes Self Management Education and Support in 2012. These revised standards were the first to be posted for public comments via the Associations professional website where nearly 300 public comments were received over a two-week comment period. These comments were incorporated in the final publication of the standards which appeared in the November 2012 issue of Diabetes Care. In addition, the Education Recognition Program committee developed a comprehensive, two-day Certified Diabetes Educator CDE Preparation Course which is aimed at growing the diabetes educator workforce in underserved areas. In collaboration with the Mississippi Department of Health, the course was offered twice to nearly 100 individuals in the state of Mississippi which currently has 127 CDEs according to the National Certification Board for Diabetes Educators serving its more than 250,000 persons burdened with diabetes.

In 2012, Diabetes, Diabetes Care, Clinical Diabetes and Diabetes Spectrum reached more than 51,000 health care professionals, including researchers, physicians and diabetes educators, with information on cutting-edge diabetes research, state-of-the-art treatment advances and clinical treatment guidelines. The Associations professional journals can be accessed online by visiting http//www.diabetesjournals.org. The Association continued to expand the digital reach of its professional journals, launching new journal features and projects to promote and disseminate its journal content as widely as possible. The 2011 impact factors for Diabetes and Diabetes Care were released in July 2012. Diabetes 8.3 and Diabetes Care 8.1 rank 5th and 7th, respectively, of 116 publications in the field of endocrinology/metabolism and 2nd and 5th among journals publishing original research in that field. Impact factor is a measure of a journals prestige, and is calculated by determining the frequency with which the average article in a journal is cited by other publications. Diabetes and Diabetes Care are the highest-ranked journals devoted exclusively to diabetes-related research.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued...

A Scientific Statement from the American Heart Association and the American Diabetes Association.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Awareness Advocacy- Growing Realization Early diagnosis is critical to the successful treatment of diabetes complications. As this disease has reached epidemic proportions, the Association is leading the call to all Americans to ensure that diabetes is not merely considered a condition, but something that has deadly consequences. To increase the publics awareness, the Association reaches out to everyone affected via targeted public awareness efforts and educational programs. One of our biggest efforts turned out to be one of our most well-received. The 24th American Diabetes Association Alert Day took place on March 27, 2012. We challenged Americans to take the all-new Diabetes Risk Test and share it with loved ones. It was available through a number of Association and partner channels. More than 567,000 took it online, 52,457 of whom took it on Alert Day alone. Overall, 897 million impressions were garnered between local and national media outreach, social media efforts, Association promotional channels, collaborative efforts and unique opportunities. Another cornerstone event, American Diabetes Month ADM, focused on a Facebook-generated campaign. We asked Americans to share what A Day in the Life of Diabetes meant to them by adding a personal photo to a mosaic on the Associations Facebook page. Through various promotional activities, we gained thousands of additional supporters and helped people understand the devastating effects of diabetes by giving people a channel to share their story. Total outreach was tallied at more than 622 million impressions, which was highlighted by the mosaics projection on the interior of Union Station in Washington D.C. on World Diabetes Day. A key component in making a difference in the fight against diabetes is to help people understand their risk. If we can educate people about the warning signs and dangers surrounding this disease, then we can promote healthy eating, physical activity, and appropriate clinical care. The Associations residential program enlists neighborhood representatives to share American Diabetes Associations diabetes information with people living in their communities. In 2012 this program engaged 192,588 volunteers to distribute 1.4 million Diabetes Risk Tests throughout the country.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Additionally, the Association mailed diabetes information directly to the homes of 41 million individuals. The messaging is clear that diabetes is a serious disease and that individuals need to know the warning signs and health risks of diabetes. The mail program focuses on individuals who are at high risk for diabetes because of known family history or public health trends. The information educates individuals not only on the disease, but also on ways to prevent diabetes and its complications through healthy eating and physical activity. To underscore the seriousness of the disease, the Association asks individuals to seek help from a physician if the individual, a friend, or relative shows any symptom. The public health information coupled with the request to take specific action combines to create a powerful educational tool, especially in the hands of persons already concerned with health risks. All of our mail recipients are considered to be affected by diabetes. Research has proven that just about all Americans are affected by diabetes if not through known direct contact with the disease, then through legislation or rising costs of a health system which must support the cost of diabetes, or perhaps they are one of the millions with diabetes who are unaware they have the disease or even one of the 79 million Americans who have pre-diabetes, a type of high blood sugar that puts them at high risk for getting the disease. We also focused on gaining attention for our mission on a local level. Nearly 55,000 people attended the American Diabetes Association EXPO in 11 communities around the country to learn how to be healthy and active and to live well with diabetes. Another 23,000 participated in health screenings supported by more than 2,100 volunteers. The 5th Disparities Partnership Forum hosted nearly 300 registered attendees from targeted backgrounds. It educated participants on the topic of Cultural Competency, Health Literacy and Health Equity. This years forum was made available online and drew hundreds of viewers. We were also able to address the needs of individuals in high-risk populations through diverse organizations. The Awakening the Spirit staff participated in multiple conferences and meetings to encourage continued support for the Special Diabetes Programs for Indians SDPI. Their blog promoted American Diabetes Month, Native American Heritage Month and Elders. The New Patient Initiative received exposure through print, social media and web ads in Indian Country Today Media Network ICTMN. ICTMN has a weekly circulation of 22,000 and monthly website hits in the hundreds of thousands.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Our African American Initiative showed notable progress as well. Live EMPOWERED reached more than 2 million people last year, and collaborated with more than 1,300 churches in November for its major annual education awareness event I Decide to Stop Diabetes Day. Three-hundred churches signed on to participate in a workshop series that begins in 2013. Local markets participating in the campaign reached more than 700,000 African-Americans across the country during ADM. The Association also unveiled the new Choose to Live Sisters Strong Together series and the Vanderbilt/Meharry Be Heart Smart pilot study. In conjunction with Alpha Kappa Alpha Sorority, they examine biometrics and the impact on lifestyle behaviors and how they correlate to cardiovascular disease. Our Latino initiative, Por Tu Familia, launched the Associations Promotoras Program in collaboration with Community Health Corps/AmeriCorps with placement of full time AmeriCorps members in Northern California and the Central Valley. The Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander AANHPI Subcommittee participated in the 10th Annual Korean American Association of Greater Washington Festival in Bull Run Park, Virginia. We shared information about the Risk Test, healthy habits and the importance of general awareness about type 2 diabetes with more than 22,000 attendees. SIGNATURE CAMPAIGNS Fundraising special events is yet another opportunity for the Association to raise awareness of diabetes. All of the Associations events, including our signature events Step Out Walk to Stop Diabetes and Tour de Cure, incorporate our educational message and brought awareness to the seriousness of diabetes.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Prevention- Progressive Measures To drive people to the Diabetes Risk Test, the Association launched two new CheckUp America public service announcements PSAs in 2012. This campaign, along with three other CheckUp America campaigns, earned top airplay awards based on Nielsen Media Service rankings. One of the PSAs, A Toast, ranked 21st out of more than 2,000 PSAs aired last year and earned a Top 1 Award. Collectively, they had 1.2 billion audience impressions in 2012. The Preventive Health Partnership PHP, the Associations collaboration with the American Cancer Society and American Heart Association, continued work in the fields of outpatient quality improvement, international health, promotion of physical activity in schools and worksite wellness.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Advocacy- Advancing Rights The American Diabetes Associations advocacy efforts give people with diabetes, their families and health care professionals the power to influence public policy issues that affect people with diabetes at the local, state and national levels. Through Advocacy, the Association works to leverage its voice to promote laws and policies that best meet the needs of people who have, or are at risk for, diabetes. From Capitol Hill to statehouses around the country, the Association works tirelessly to promote laws and policies that meet the needs of people who have, or are at risk for, diabetes. In addition, the American Diabetes Association leads the charge at both the federal and state levels calling for increased funding for vital research and prevention programs and improving access to affordable, quality health care. The Association has trained advocates around the country who represent those with diabetes who need a raised voice to protect their rights at school, work and elsewhere in their lives. A growing volunteer network of attorneys, healthcare professionals and advanced school advocates help thousands facing discrimination because of their diabetes. In an effort to increase funding and raise awareness for prevention, research and treatment, Capitol Hill Advocacy Day brought Diabetes Advocates from across the country to meet with Members of Congress who serve on the powerful Appropriations Committees. Joined by tens of thousands of other Advocates who contacted their Members of Congress throughout the year through email, letters, phone calls, and in-district meetings and events, they urged Congress to make critical investments to alter the course of diabetes in the nation. The Association continued work to expand access to health care for people living with, or at risk for, diabetes. Our efforts ensure diabetes care and prevention are included as the Affordable Care Act ACA is rolled out at both the national and state levels. In 2012, the U.S. Supreme Court upheld the law, a crucial victory in the ongoing fight to Stop Diabetes. As the law is fully implemented, those affected will continue to see benefits including consumer information about diabetes, coverage of diabetes care in state health care marketplaces, the end of discrimination based on pre-existing conditions and the expansion of the National Diabetes Prevention Program.
		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... The Special Statutory Funding Program for Type 1 Diabetes Research and the Special Diabetes Program for Native Americans will receive an additional 300 million as a result of our successful efforts to secure reauthorization of the Program. This means more research to prevent, treat and cure diabetes and more support for initiatives aimed at those disproportionately affected by the disease. In continued efforts to build outside support for our advocacy efforts in disparately impacted populations, the Association carried its message to major conferences including the National Council of La Raza, the Congressional Black and Hispanic Caucuses and the National Indian Health Board to name a few. Safe At School Our Safe at School campaign continues to gain ground. As a result of legislation and state-wide policy changes, Alaska, Georgia, Louisiana and the District of Columbia now meet the key tenets of the campaign through access to insulin, glucagon and appropriate self-care. In addition, Connecticut expanded access to emergency and self-care, and school regulations in Florida were strengthened to ensure students with diabetes have the same privileges and access as all other students. A Back to School promotional campaign included social media, website promotion, fundraising efforts, a petition drive and a radio media tour that reached more than three million listeners. The Association also reached out to pediatric health care providers through a new toolkit aimed at educating families about rights to diabetes care at school. The Advocates in Action initiative includes an expanded online Hometown Advocacy Kit with an extensive library of resources. Together, We Can Stop Diabetes Imagine the day when diabetes will be powerless. Powerless to threaten our families and communities. Imagine a future without compromise and complications. Without confusion, fear or discrimination. Fortunately, more and more Americans have stepped forward to lend their voices, passion, money and time to stop this devastating disease. The tide is turning, and we know in our hearts that one day, diabetes will be powerless.
