Return Reference Explanation
II-B The American Diabetes Associations advocacy efforts and achievements are at the core of creating effective and lasting change for people living with and at risk for diabetes. Raising our voices from Capitol Hill to state legislatures across the country, our dedicated Diabetes Advocates continue to drive momentum in our ongoing fight to Stop Diabetes. Our advocacy work gives 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. Our primary goals are to increase federal and state funding for diabetes prevention, treatment and research to prevent diabetes to improve the availability of accessible, adequate and affordable health care to end the discrimination people with diabetes face at school, work and elsewhere in their lives to achieve health equity. In 2018, the ADA achieved Increased funding for National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases by over 159 million dollars, for the Division of Diabetes Translation by 8 million dollars and for the National Diabetes Prevention Program by 2.8 million dollars in federal Fiscal Years 2018 and 2019 Achieved 600 million dollar reauthorization of the Special Diabetes Program, which supports critical research toward better treatments and a cure for type 1 diabetes and essential prevention and management programs for American Indians through Fiscal Year 2019. Participated in hundreds of meetings, briefings events and other actions in support of our legislative and regulatory priorities which led to a record setting 80 legislative and regulatory wins in states across the country Added two states to the 27 states already requiring diabetes action plans that assess the burden of diabetes and prioritize policy recommendations to reduce the burden of diabetes Achieved 30 state level wins that advance prevention policies including school based policies, community based policies, and budget allocations that increase state investment in prevention programs Mobilized Diabetes Advocates through our Congress at Home initiative to host nearly 60 in district meetings across the country with Congressional members and their staff Convened nearly 200 people living with and affected by diabetes, health care professionals, researchers, and 17 current and former professional football players at Call to Congress to advocate on Capitol Hill in Washington, D.C. for increased federal funding for diabetes research, affordable insulin and health care access and coverage and more Achieved the goal of congressional hearing on insulin affordability and delivered testimony to the Senate Special Committee on Aging about the rising cost of this lifesaving drug Secured an additional 181,000 signatures for ADAs insulin affordability petition for a total of over 432,000 signatures. This ongoing campaign included the launch of a new animated video to explain the complexities of the insulin supply chain Achieved 37 state level wins protecting or improving health care for millions of people with diabetes in states across the country. Continued efforts to protect the Affordable Care Act ACA by filing an amicus friend of the court brief defending the ACA against a lawsuit challenging the laws constitutionality. The brief, which was jointly filed with four other patient advocacy organizations, brought to the courts attention the ADAs significant interest in protecting the ACA for Americans impacted by diabetes Introduced in the House and Senate for the first time the Expanding Access to Diabetes Self Management Training Act, which would remove barriers to Diabetes Self Management Education and Support in Medicare and encourage beneficiaries to participate in such programs Educated and inspired action among our 525,000 advocates in more than 70 federal, state and legal advocacy calls to action throughout the year, Improved access to continuous glucose monitors used with a mobile device for Medicare beneficiaries Increased access to nutritious foods through healthy food financing, school based meal assistance programs, and other state level health equity legislation that impacts communities across the country.

Return Reference Explanation
V 4 The following was disclosed in the consolidated financial statements related to the intended use of the Association endowment funds The Association has adopted an investment policy for endowment assets that provides continued financial stability for the Association and a revenue stream for spending on the Association mission.
V 4 To fulfill this mission, the American Diabetes Association funds research, publishes scientific findings, provides information and other services to people with diabetes, their families, health professionals, and the public.
X 2 The following was disclosed related to uncertain tax positions in the audited financial statements The American Diabetes Association and the American Diabetes Association Research Foundation, Inc. are generally exempt from income taxes under Section 501c3 of the Internal Revenue Code the Code and charitable contributions to these organizations qualify for tax deductions as described in the Code. The American Diabetes Association Property Title Holding Corporation is generally exempt from income taxes under Section 501c2 of the Code. These entities are subject to taxation on any net unrelated business income and have been classified as organizations that are not private foundations under Section 509a of the Code. The Association recognizes the effect of income tax positions only if those positions more likely than not would not be sustained upon examination by the Internal Revenue Service. The Association has analyzed the tax positions taken and has concluded that as of December 31, 2018, there are no uncertain tax positions taken or expected to be taken that would require recognition of a liability or asset or disclosure in the consolidated financial statements.

Return Reference Explanation
Part I Line 2 Related to Research 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, payments will not be disbursed until all reporting requirements have been met. 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.
Part I Line 2 Related to Camps The American Diabetes Association continues to be the worlds largest provider of camps for children with diabetes to help ensure the wellbeing of families affected by diabetes. The Association provides grants, scholarships and targeted youth programs for persons with diabetes. Each summer, thousands of children have the opportunity to spend time at Diabetes Camp, meeting other children with diabetes and sharing their experiences, challenges, hopes, and dreams. In 2018, the American Diabetes Association hosted 79 camp sessions in 25 states serving over 6,000 campers with Type I, Type 2, and at risk for Type 2 diabetes. In addition, more than 2,000 volunteers made camp possible by donating their time and expertise. Camp provides an outdoor recreational experience in which the child for children with diabetes ages 4 to 17 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. An assessment/planning meeting including camp volunteers and staff leadership is held within two months of the conclusion of the camp season. 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.
Part II Line 2 Related to Education The American Diabetes Association is committed to preventing diabetes. The Diabetes Prevention Program DPP was a major multicenter clinical research study, funded in part by the American Diabetes Association, aimed at discovering whether modest weight loss through dietary changes and increased physical activity or treatment with the oral diabetes drug metformin Glucophage could prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in study participants. The DPP found that participants who lost a modest amount of weight through dietary changes and increased physical activity sharply reduced their chances of developing diabetes. Taking metformin also reduced risk, although less dramatically. The DPPs results indicate that millions of high-risk people can delay or avoid developing type 2 diabetes by losing weight through regular physical activity and a diet low in fat and calories. Weight loss and physical activity lower the risk of diabetes by improving the bodys ability to use insulin and process glucose. The DPP contributed to a better understanding of how diabetes develops in people at risk and how they can prevent or delay the development of diabetes by making behavioral changes leading to weight loss. These findings are reflected in recommendations from the American Diabetes Association for the prevention or delay of type 2 diabetes, which stress the importance of lifestyle changes and weight loss. Building on the success of the DPP, the Centers for Disease Control CDC led National Diabetes Prevention Program is an evidence-based lifestyle change program for preventing type 2 diabetes. The year-long program helps participants make real lifestyle changes such as eating healthier, including physical activity into their daily lives, and improving problem-solving and coping skills.
Part III Line 1,2 Each year, the American Diabetes Association recognizes the outstanding contributions of individuals in the service of the diabetes community through its National Achievement Awards. These awards are among the Associations most noteworthy and coveted recognition opportunities, celebrating those whose significant contributions to our cause have been national in scope and impact. Past recipients represent individuals or groups that have never faltered in their efforts to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Connected for Life
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Today, more than 100 million Americans in the United States have diabetes or prediabetes an invasive, unrelenting and debilitating disease that spans all ages, geography and educational levels. This chronic disease targets children, the elderly and minority populations more than others and costs the United States 327 billion dollars each year in lost productivity. It is a global epidemic that contributes to heart disease, stroke, nerve and kidney disease and vision loss. The American Diabetes Association is the only organization dedicated specifically to the research, education and advocacy required to improve the lives of the 30.3 million adults and children in the U. S. with diabetes and the 84.1 million people with prediabetes. For 78 years, we have been working on the frontlines to educate at risk populations, protect the rights of people with diabetes at work, school and other aspects of daily life, pioneer clinical and research breakthroughs and foster a pipeline of the best and brightest scientists. From research labs to the halls of the Capitol to the offices of health care practitioners to communities nationwide, we are there. We are bending the curve to help people living with diabetes and their families thrive. Why Because we envision a life free of diabetes and all its burdens, which is fueled by our mission to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 DIABETES RESEARCH
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Diabetes is an extremely complex disease, caused by a combination of various genetic and environmental factors that progressively lead to an inability to produce or effectively utilize insulin. The complexity of causes conspiring to diminish the bodys production or response to insulin, leading to high blood glucose and eventual development of diabetes, makes finding a single cure particularly difficult. While a cure has been elusive, critical research efforts in recent decades have led to significantly improved patient care, resulting in fewer complications and better health outcomes for individuals with diabetes. As a leader in diabetes research, and the only organization dedicated specifically to the research, education and advocacy required to improve the lives of all people with diabetes, the American Diabetes Association funds critical, innovative diabetes research and invests in promising scientists early in their careers. Our direct involvement in diabetes research extends back to the 1940s when Dr. Charles H. Best, one of four scientists credited with discovering insulin, provided the ADA with the framework and early leadership for a formalized diabetes research program.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Since our Research Programs inception in 1952, we have been the leader in funding cutting edge diabetes research, supporting nearly 4,800 research projects and investing more than 834.4 million in diabetes research. In 2018, the ADA supported 318 new and continuing research projects at 104 leading research institutions across the United States. The projects cover the broad spectrum of research approaches, including basic, clinical and translational science and address all types of diabetes, diabetes related disease states and complications. The primary goals of the ADAs Research Program are to Support the highest quality science across the broad spectrum of diabetes research, Support investigators early in their careers to encourage them to dedicate their efforts to diabetes research, Support innovative research with a high potential to have a significant impact for patients with diabetes.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Peer Review Process. One of the factors that sets American Diabetes Association funded research apart and ensures that we are supporting the very best science is peer review. Peer review is a process whereby grant applications are reviewed and evaluated by individuals who are experts in the field or peers of the individual submitting the grant. ADA grant applications all undergo peer review by three or more volunteer experts who are themselves diabetes researchers. Reviewers provide both a score and detailed comments regarding the strengths and weaknesses of each grant they review. Scores from all reviewers for each grant are averaged to arrive at a composite merit score that is then used to determine which grants to support.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Types of Research Awards. Research awards are divided into four major categories that reflect our research goals and priorities, provide extraordinary opportunities for researchers from diverse backgrounds, and foster the professional development of young scientists interested in diabetes research. The categories are Investigator-Initiated Awards Core Program Pathway to Stop Diabetes Collaborative Targeted Research and Research Co-Support. Approximately 80 percent of American Diabetes Association-funded research falls under the Core Research Awards. The ADA uses a single annual grant application cycle for its Core Research Program, featuring a streamlined grant portfolio. In 2018, a total of 884 research grant applications were submitted. With donor-directed funding, the ADA supported a targeted initiative in 2018 to fund three postdoctoral fellows with clinical or translational research projects focused on understanding the cardiovascular complications of type 1 diabetes.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 The ADA hosted a research symposium on the Use of Real-World Data to Improve the Prevention and Care of Diabetes-Related Outcomes in Washington D.C. in November of 2018. The symposium offered presentations and discussion with the goal of driving consensus to accelerate guidance on the design and use of real-world data to improve the prevention and care of diabetes-related outcomes. ADA-supported researchers made significant progress in understanding how diabetes develops and progresses, and in identifying new ways to combat the disease. Notable advances include assessing the potential of community programs to combat health disparities in type 2 diabetes a novel therapy to prevent type 1 diabetes leading to a better understanding of why the immune system attacks insulin-producing beta-cells in type 1 diabetes and preserving eyesight in people with diabetes by studying a unique molecule that seems to play an important role in the development of diabetic retinopathy, a progressive complication of diabetes that affects nearly 100 million people worldwide and leads to blindness.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Research Program Outcomes. The American Diabetes Association-funded researchers show an exemplary commitment to advancing their careers within the field of diabetes research. Within five years of their award 99 percent of the researchers we fund remain committed to diabetes research for at least five years. 9 out of 10 researchers secure new funding within five years to expand their work, leveraging 7.36 for every 1 invested by the American Diabetes Association
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Pathway to Stop Diabetes. Launched in 2013, the American Diabetes Associations Pathway to Stop Diabetes initiative aims to inspire a new generation of diabetes researchers who are early in their career or are established but would like to expand their focus on diabetes research. Through awards of 1.625 million over the course of five to seven years, the program allows researchers to have the time and focus needed to explore new ideas. With a goal of funding 100 new diabetes researchers over the next decade, Pathway provides crucial support to individuals focusing on innovative ideas and transformational approaches that will lead to new discoveries in diabetes prevention and treatment. Importantly, Pathway is in addition to ongoing ADA research activities and is significantly expanding our research efforts. Six new Pathway awardees began their research projects in January 2018. During the 2018 calendar year these new awardees, along with the 23 Pathway scientists who were continuing in their terms of Pathway funding, collectively published 30 high impact original research manuscripts and seven reviews. They delivered 151 presentations at scientific meetings. Through 2018, eight Pathway Initiator award recipients of nine funded to date have secured their first independent faculty positions. Ten patent applications have been filed by Pathway awardees to date. These outcomes demonstrate that the Pathway initiative continues to exceed its objectives and progress toward our vision of bringing 100 brilliant scientists to diabetes research.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 The Pathway scientists came together at the fourth annual Pathway to Stop Diabetes Symposium, held at the 78th Scientific Sessions in Orlando, Florida, where the newest cohort of Pathway awardees presented their project plans and progress to date. This exclusive symposium brought the awardees together with the Mentor Advisory Group, program sponsors, philanthropic supporters, and ADA leadership. The sixth annual Pathway to Stop Diabetes grant competition was held in 2018. The Mentor Advisory Group reviewed 89 outstanding nominations and selected three new Pathway awardees who began their grants in January 2018. With selection of these new awardees, the Pathway program has supported 32 outstanding investigators in total. 2018, the first group of scientists completed their terms of Pathway funding, which had started in 2014. These scientists, Kathleen Page, MD, of the University of Southern California Wolfgang Peti, PhD, of the University of Arizona and Joshua P. Thaler, MD, PhD, of the University of Washington, all completed their fifth and final year of their awards. Each of them has already added substantially to our understanding of diabetes and diabetes risk, and their contributions will continue throughout their careers in diabetes science, because they are now set up for success in conducting the kind of innovative, transformative research that holds promise to ultimately stop the health crisis that is diabetes.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Scientific Sessions. Held annually, Scientific Sessions exemplifies the American Diabetes Associations leadership role in the global diabetes community, while providing a critical platform for driving diabetes awareness.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Youth, Young Adult and Family Initiatives Reaching Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes Families. For children living with type 1 diabetes, the everyday challenges of being a kid must be balanced with the management of a disease that is constant, demanding and scary. They walk a tightrope between blood glucose levels that are too high and those that are too low both of which can be life threatening. Because type 1 diabetes is a life-long disease and challenges vary at every stage of life, the American Diabetes Association strives to reach those with type 1 diabetes with relevant programs throughout their life from early diagnosis through adulthood and advanced management. The Youth, Young Adult and Family Initiatives team hosted a conference in October 2018 to examine and address the needs of rapidly advancing medical technology and data with the support of The Leona M. and Harry B. Helmsley Charitable Trust. At the conference, 41 stakeholders, including leaders from the ADAs camp network, the Diabetes Education and Camping Association DECA, industry representatives, ADA Youth and Family Initiative staff, and The Helmsley Charitable Trust convened in Arlington, Virginia to plan for the future. The goal was to share best practices and information to create a living document entitled, Best Practices for the use of Diabetes Technology at Summer Camps, and a set of training materials entitled, Diabetes Basics that are available for download at diabetes.org summercamp.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Diabetes Camps. The American Diabetes Association continues to be the worlds largest provider of camps for children with diabetes. Our Diabetes Camps have become one of the most powerful and life changing avenues to improve the lives of children affected by diabetes. Offered each summer to nearly 6,000 youth with diabetes across the U.S., the overarching purpose of our Diabetes Camps is to promote diabetes self care in an environment thats fun, peer oriented and medically safe. Since 1947, these camps have provided a traditional summer camp experience while giving children the chance to master basic diabetes self management skills. At camp, children connect with peers facing the same daily struggles, build their confidence and overcome feelings of isolation and despair. Some campers learn how to inject insulin and count their own carbohydrates for the first time, while others advance their skills in insulin pump use. 2018 Diabetes Camp Highlights. The ADA hosted 80 Camp and Retreat sessions serving 6,677 children and teens and more than 10,000 of their loved ones. 2,019 campers were new in 2018. 2,661 volunteers made these programs possible. 1,553 trained medical professionals served as medical, dietary and social work staff during the summer season. The ADA also held five family retreats throughout the year, engaging parents and children who are newly diagnosed or new to the Camp community. The ADA continues to be the worlds largest provider of camps for children with diabetes. 5,689 of our 6,677 campers have type 1 diabetes. All camps offer camp fee subsidies for participants of 50 percent or more. In addition to this subsidy, 24 percent of our campers received need based financial aid and 535,974 dollars was awarded in 2018. This program ensures that the cost of camp is not a barrier for any family.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Gaining New Diabetes Management Skills. After camp, 91 of campers were able to perform at least one diabetes management skill independently. Rotate injection sites 21 increase. Draw up insulin without assistance 20 increase. Recognize own low blood glucose levels 20 increase. Gave own injections 19 increase.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4 We are Connected for Life. Just Imagine. The American Diabetes Association is a lot of things to a lot of different people. But the one thing we are to everyone is a connection point in the fight to cure diabetes to help people live a better life. Just imagine. Imagine the day when diabetes will no longer devastate our families and communities, our neighbors near and far. When a parent doesnt have to hear that their child has an incurable disease that brings with it not only sleepless nights, but constant fears about possible complications and diabetes related discrimination. When nobody has to worry anymore about blood glucose highs and lows and whether that blurred vision is the beginning of a life without sight. When a family can gather at a family reunion and create happy memories instead of having to gather at a graveside to say goodbye to a loved one who has lost their battle against diabetes. We know that, together, we can stop this dreadful disease and realize our vision life free of diabetes and all its burdens. Learn more at www.diabetes.org and www.stopdiabetes.com.
