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 access to 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 2019, the ADA achieved Increased funding for National Institute of Diabetes and Digestive and Kidney Diseases by over 84 million, maintained funding for the Division of Diabetes, and increased funding for the National Diabetes Prevention Program by 2 million for federal Fiscal Year 2020. Participated in hundreds of meetings, briefings events and other actions in support of our legislative and regulatory priorities which led to 100 legislative and regulatory wins in states across the country. Achieved 55 state level wins that increase accessibility to affordable and adequate health care. Achieved 42 state level wins that advance prevention policies and increase health equity. Provided review and language for Safe at School legislation and regulation in seven states ensuring laws and regulations align with American Diabetes Association standards and principles. Mobilized Diabetes Advocates through our Congress at Home initiative to host nearly 40 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 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 further congressional hearings on insulin affordability, delivering expert testimony to the Senate Finance Committee and the House Energy and Commerce Committees Subcommittee on Oversight and Investigation 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 to the U.S. Court of Appeals for the Fifth Circuit defending the ACA against a lawsuit challenging the laws constitutionality. The brief, which was jointly filed with numerous other patient advocacy organizations, brought to the courts attention the ADAs significant interest in protecting the ACA for Americans impacted by diabetes. Built support in the House and Senate for 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 110 federal, state and legal advocacy calls to action and biweekly newsletter updates 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
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 2019, the American Diabetes Association hosted 79 camp sessions in 25 states serving over 5,500 campers with Type I, Type 2, and over 3,000 participants 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. Today, more than 122 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 34 million adults and children in the U. S. with diabetes and the 88 million people with prediabetes. For 79 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. 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 American Diabetes Association 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 more than 4,800 research projects and investing more than 860 million in diabetes research. In 2019, the ADA supported 295 new and continuing research projects at 118 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. 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 2019, a total of 609 research grant applications were submitted from scientists based at institutions across the United States. ADA-supported researchers made significant progress in understanding how diabetes develops and progresses, and in identifying new ways to combat the disease.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 A new way to prevent immune cells from attacking insulin-producing beta-cells Replacing insulin producing beta cells that have been lost in people with type 1 diabetes is a promising strategy to restore control of glucose levels. However, because the autoimmune disease is a continuous process, replacing beta cells results in another immune attack if immunosorbent drugs are not used, which carry significant side effects. This year, ADA funded researcher Dr. Jianxun Song reported on the potential of an immunotherapy he developed that prevents immune cells from attacking beta-cells and reduces inflammatory processes. This immunotherapy offers several potential benefits, including eliminating the need for immunosuppression, long lasting effects, and the ability to customize the treatment to each patient. The ability to suppress autoimmunity has implications for both prevention of type 1 diabetes and improving success rates of islet transplantation. A novel therapy to prevent type 1 diabetes The hormone insulin normally acts like a key, traveling through the blood and opening the cellular lock to enable the entry of glucose into muscle and fat cells. However, in people with type 2 diabetes, the lock on the cellular door has, in effect, been changed, meaning insulin isnt as effective. This phenomenon is called insulin resistance. Scientists have long sought to understand what causes insulin resistance and develop therapies to enable insulin to work correctly again. In 2019, ADA funded researcher Dr. Scott Summers determined an essential role for a molecule called ceramides as a driver of insulin resistance in mice. He also presented a new therapeutic strategy for lowering ceramides and reversing insulin resistance. His findings were published in one of the most prestigious scientific journals, Science. Soon, Dr. Summers and his team will attempt to validate these findings in humans, with the ultimate goal of developing a new medication to help improve outcomes in people with diabetes.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Revealing the relationship between food insecurity and diabetes. Food insecurity is defined as the state of being without reliable access to a sufficient quantity of affordable, notorious food. For people living with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes, food insecurity can be even more detrimental as it can result in an inability to follow nutritional guidelines, even if they are motivated to do so. In 2019, ADA funded researcher Dr. Rebekah J. Walker conducted a study to determine the direct and indirect ways in which food insecurity influences glucose control and self-care behaviors. Her research determined that food insecurity was indirectly associated with A1C, and different self-care behaviors including diet, exercise and medication adherence. This year, she plans to test the effect of a culturally tailored food box to reduce food insecurity in African Americans with diabetes and improve outcomes. Pathway to Stop Diabetes. 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 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.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Three new Pathway awardees began their research projects in January 2019. During the 2019 calendar year these new awardees, along with the 27 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 2019, all nine Pathway Initiator award recipients have secured their first independent faculty positions. Thirteen 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. Several exciting outcomes that have the potential to help patients with diabetes resulted from Pathway research in 2019. Dr. Zachary Knight identified a new pathway that regulates appetite which could help to explain the effectiveness of bariatric surgery to induce rapid weight loss and improve glucose control. Dr. Alexander Nectow discovered that a specific type of neuron in the brain potently regulates energy expenditure and could be targeted to help with weight-loss. Dr. Sumita Pennathur and her team of researchers developed a new molecule with the potential to improve the durability and accuracy of continuous glucose monitoring.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 The Pathway scientists came together at the 6th annual Pathway to Stop Diabetes Symposium, held at the 79th Scientific Sessions in San Francisco, CA, 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 American Diabetes Association leadership. The 7th annual Pathway to Stop Diabetes grant competition was held in 2019. The Mentor Advisory Group reviewed 72 outstanding nominations and selected two new Pathway awardees who began their grants in January 2020. With selection of these new awardees, the Pathway program has supported 34 outstanding investigators in total. In 2019, the second group of scientists completed their terms of Pathway funding, which had started in 2015. These scientists, Mayland Chang, PhD, of the University of Notre Dame Thomas Delong, PhD, of the University of Colorado, Denver Zhen Gu, PhD, of the University of California, Los Angeles and Stephen C.J. Parker, of the University of Michigan, 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.

The average A1C decrease was 1.28 among patients documented in Chronicle Diabetes ADAs diabetes education platform. Nutrition Programs. What Can I Eat Program. Many high risk populations do not receive culturally appropriate prevention services. To address this need, the American Diabetes Association created What Can I Eat, a community based, nutrition focused support program for adults living with type 2 diabetes, their families and caregivers. This program is designed to promote positive dietary behavior change among disparately impacted adults with type 2 diabetes.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 In 2018, the What Can I Eat program was piloted in communities across the country - including Spanish language sites and American Indian Alaska Native pilot sites. Program participants demonstrated a significant increase in non-starchy vegetable consumption 17, use of the diabetes plate method 15, and use of food labels 14 following the program. Among participants with an A1C of 9 of higher, A1C significantly decreased 2 percentage points. The American Diabetes Association will continue working to scale and expand the What Can I Eat program to reach diverse communities of PWD where they are in their communities, in their life stage, and in their circumstances. Overcoming Therapeutic Inertia Accelerating Diabetes Care for Life. Despite more than 40 new diabetes treatment options being approved since 2005, and the ADA and other organizations developing clear guidelines and treatment algorithms, there has been no measurable improvement in glycemic control. In fact, between 1999 and 2014 the percentage of diabetes patients with an A1C 9 actually increased. At the root of this problem is therapeutic inertia, The failure to establish appropriate goals and to initiate or intensify therapy when therapeutic goals are not reached.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 During 2019, the ADA worked closely with a key opinion leaders and stakeholders to execute Phase Two of the Overcoming Therapeutic Inertia OTI Initiative. In October, a Steering Committee came together for an intensive one-day meeting, charting an ambitious course for addressing this long-term and multifaceted challenge. The plan includes three primary components Research to identify, evaluate and curate the most effective approaches for overcoming therapeutic inertia in clinical practice. An Awareness and Education Campaign promoting the urgent need for addressing therapeutic inertia now while sharing of practical approaches for identifying therapeutic inertia and rapidly intensifying therapy to achieve control quickly. Systems Level Barrier Busting aimed at engaging electronic medical record companies, insurance companies and key alliance partners to provide better clinical decision-making support and reduce barriers to medication and device access, including cost and coverage confusion. As Phase Two was being developed, the ADA executed several projects to support and inform OTI goals. These included A series of interactive clinical workshops held in Los Angeles, Chicago, Baltimore and Phoenix engaging over 280 clinicians. Participants left with an increased appreciation for the impact therapeutic inertia on patient outcomes, and increased confidence in assessing treatment barriers, setting explicit and collaborative treatment goals and helping patients achieve optimal control quickly.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 A newly formed Diabetes Technology Coalition brought together 18 diabetes patient and professional organizations to address issues impacting access to diabetes technologies and devices.

Form 990, Part III, Line 4 AWARENESS EDUCATION. American Diabetes Month. Observed every November, American Diabetes Month ADM is an important element in the efforts of the American Diabetes Association to focus the nations attention on diabetes and the tens of millions of people affected by the disease. Through the ADAs flagship awareness campaign, the ADA speaks directly to constituents and rally them to increase awareness and understanding of the prevalence of diabetes and the burden it places on individual lives. During the month of November, the American Diabetes Association highlighted the numbers that make a difference in fighting diabetes. The campaign dubbed Count Me In was supported by national Sponsors Colgate Total and CVS Pharmacy. Count Me In brought to life stories from all walks of life with diabetes and demonstrated why numbers are so critical in ending this disease. From the number of advocates voices fighting for those living with diabetes to the number of research breakthroughs towards a cure. From the number of people who know their risk, to the numbers people see on their blood glucose meter. Numbers like these can change everything.
Form 990, Part III, Line 4 Throughout the month, we used captivating videos, emails, social media posts and more to reach people nationwide. We encouraged people to change their numbers by taking the Type 2 Diabetes Risk Test, signing up to be an advocate, or even cooking a healthy meal offering multiple ways to get involved. The team promoted the campaign using various mediums, ADA channels, and partner outreach. The campaign garnered nearly 56,300 pageviews to the ADM landing page, and more than 1.3 million impressions through social media.
