Form 990 Part III	4	Together we Can Change the Future of DiabetesOur mission, to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes, can be seen in everything we do. Diabetes is a growing epidemic that is taking a physical, emotional and financial toll on our country. In 2007, the total annual economic cost of diabetes in medical expenditures and lost productivity was estimated to be 174 billion. Factoring in the additional costs of undiagnosed diabetes, prediabetes and gestational diabetes brings the total cost to 218 billion. Recent estimates project that as many as 1 in 3 American adults will have diabetes by 2050 if present trends continue. In the United States, nearly 26 million people are living with diabetes and another 79 million have prediabetes and are at risk of developing the disease. For all of those individuals, their families and health care professionals, the American Diabetes Association works tirelessly every day to provide valuable programs and lifesaving resources, while moving us closer to a cure. A vision of life free of diabetes and all its burdens guides all of our work. Our Programs and activities touch the lives of people all over the world the promising researcher on the verge of finding a cure, the health care professional seeking the latest standards of care for patients, and the parent of a newly diagnosed child in need of support. Our commitment is unwavering and our impact is far-reaching.ResearchCommitment to a CureWe envision a world where research leads the way to putting an end to diabetes. Our funding creates a strong pipeline of innovative diabetes investigators who are dedicated to uncovering new ideas in diabetes research, translating discoveries into improved treatments and leading us toward an eventual cure for diabetes. Our commitment has contributed to hundreds of scientific accomplishments that help people with diabetes lead healthier, more productive lives, including drugs to control the disease like newer forms of insulin and new diabetes management technologies, including insulin pumps and handheld blood glucose meters. The American Diabetes Association Research Foundation allocated 100 of its funds to support scientific investigators around the country who are engaging in research aimed at preventing, treating, and curing diabetes. In 2011, the American Diabetes Association and its Research Foundation made 33.6 million available for diabetes research. The Association supported more than 400 research projects at 139 leading research institutions in the United States. Over the years, through our continuing commitment to research, the American Diabetes Association has invested more than 600 million in diabetes research and provided funding for nearly 4,000 research projects.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, and 3. Support innovative research with a high potential to have a significant impact for patients with diabetes.
Form 990 Part III	4 Continued...	Types of Research AwardsThe 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. 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, 97 of researchers supported by the Association continue their careers in diabetes research. 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.Headlines from projects supported by the American Diabetes Association Research Program in 2011 included- Sugar-Sweetened Beverages Increase Risk of Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome, January 2011- Sperm Stem Cells Hold Promise for Type 1 Diabetes Treatment, February 2011 - Software Accurately Predicts Optimization of Type 1 Diabetes Treatment, March 2011- Insulin Signaling in the Brain Controls Fat Metabolism, April 2011- Changes in Amino Acid Levels Following Gastric Bypass May Improve Diabetes, May 2011- Intensive Problem-Solving Training Improves Diabetes Self-Management in Low-Income Patients, June 2011- Evaluating the Risk of Eating Disorders in Teenagers with Type 1 Diabetes, July 2011- Effects of bariatric surgery in patients with diabetes, July 2011- Bone Marrow Stem Cells Hold Promise for Treating Diabetes-related Foot Complications, September 2011- Saturated vs. Unsaturated Why Some Fats are Healthier Than Others, October 2011 - Estrogen in the Brain Prevents Obesity in Women, November 2011- Minority Undergraduate Internship MUI funds the training of an underrepresented minority undergraduate student, January 2006 to presentPromotion of Scientific Medical ResearchScientific SessionScientific Sessions -- the world largest scientific and medical meeting focused on diabetes and its complications -- exemplifies the American Diabetes Association leading role in the diabetes landscape, while functioning as an important platform for driving diabetes awareness. The Association 71st Scientific Sessions was held in San Diego in June 2011 and brought together more than 16,000 scientists, health care professionals, and other members of the diabetes community from around the world. Scientific Sessions also generated 7.2 billion media impressions the number of people who may have seen, heard, read, or otherwise noticed media coverage worldwide. Throughout the five days of the meeting, there were more than 3,000 educational presentations that included lectures, debates, case discussions, and original research in oral and poster sessions. In addition, more than 175 companies showcased their latest products and services in the Exhibit Hall. The American Diabetes Association Scientific Sessions continues to be the premier global meeting presenting the most up-to-date information on the research and best clinical practice strategies of the prevention, treatment, and management of the disease.
Form 990 Part III	4 Continued ...	AdvocacyFighting For Your Future on the Front linesThe American Diabetes Association is an active advocate for everyone affected by diabetes. From Capitol Hill to statehouses around the country, we work tirelessly to promote laws and policies that meet the needs of people who have, or are at risk for, diabetes. We are leading 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.And our advocacy work does not end there. 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 more than 700 attorneys, 300 healthcare professionals and 100 advanced school advocates help thousands facing discrimination because of their diabetes. Our efforts have resulted in regulatory change in nearly 25 states that protect our constituent rights. The Association is there in school meetings, in court, at the statehouse fighting for someone with diabetes who has been placed at risk.In 2011, the Association advocacy work resulted in a significant number of victoriesThe Association celebrated its first full year of the Advocates in Action initiative, which continues to build capacity in local communities across the nation to engage people affected by diabetes in advocacy efforts. Both new and seasoned Diabetes Advocates were encouraged to get involved via a calendar of advocacy activities including efforts to keep kids safe at school, recess meetings with Members of Congress, submitting letters to editors and speaking to local community groups.In March 2011, more than 200 Diabetes Advocates descended on Capitol Hill for the Association biannual Call to Congress Stop Diabetes. In addition to more than 250 meetings with Members of Congress and their staff to talk about funding for diabetes research and programs and to seek additional members of the Congressional Diabetes Caucuses, the Association was featured in a press event on the Affordable Care Acts impact on people with chronic diseases. Attendees also participated in training and planning sessions as part of their pledge to continue as advocacy leaders in their local communities.The Association raised its presence in Washington, D.C. through six Congressional briefings on issues ranging from diabetes research to launching our gestational diabetes bill testimony by the Association Chair of the Board before the Senate Health Education Labor and Pensions Committee on primary prevention and the thousands of Advocates who made their voices heard through online action alerts and Call to Congress days. A Presidential Proclamation was issued during American Diabetes Month followed by a resolution in the Senate and public service announcements recorded by more than 30 Members of Congress. The Association tireless efforts to protect the Affordable Care Act and to ensure that it is implemented in ways that best meet the needs of those with, and at risk for, diabetes included more than 30 letters and formal comments to Congress and the Administration as well as numerous briefings and meetings with high level officials. Among the Association successes are inroads in funding the National Diabetes Prevention Program through Medicaid and Medicare, and a Congressional recommendation of 10 million in funding free screening for gestational diabetes in all pregnant women between 24 and 28 weeks of gestation and atthe first prenatal visit for pregnant women identified to be at high risk for diabetes.The Association continued its leadership role in promoting equal employment opportunity for people with diabetes. Culminating years of effort, new federal regulations contain strong provisions solidifying that people with diabetes are protected from discrimination. And, under the leadership of President of Medicine Science, the Association collaborated with the State Department to develop medical clearance standards for Foreign Service officers with insulin treated diabetes ending a blanket ban and providing a model for other federal agencies.The Safe at School Campaign continued to protect the health and educational opportunities of children with diabetes across the country. Trained volunteers conducted more than 200 workshops for parents and school personnel. The Association lawsuit regarding access to insulin was briefed in the California Supreme Court with an impressive list of federal and state agencies, diabetes experts, school and civil rights advocates filing briefs in support of the Association position that trained school personnel should be allowed to help students with diabetes. The Association continued its opposition to the growing practice of school districts segregating students with diabetes in special schools to receive diabetes care, buoyed by support from the federal Departments of Justice and Education and a Florida administrative law judges determination the practice constitutes unlawful discrimination. A more aggressive marketing and communications platform around the Association school efforts included a radio press tour aired by more than 2,000 radio stations and network affiliates, reaching an estimated 5 million listeners a news releasepublished by more than 700 media outlets and increased visibility throughout the Association print, direct mail, online and social media outlets.A new position statement on diabetes and driving was created to provide critical guidance to state driver licensing agencies on appropriately assessing the fitness of drivers with diabetes, combating state policies that vary wildly and are sometimes unfair. As one example of numerous successful efforts to prevent reductions in insurance benefits at the state level, Washington State was poised to severely restrict the access to glucose monitoring for children covered by state plans an action that was watched around the country until a sustained advocacy effort resulted in an expansion of access for these vulnerable children.
Form 990 Part III	4 Continued...	Public Awareness and SupportImpacting Our CommunitiesIn 2011, approximately 1.9 million Americans aged 20 years or older heard the words you have diabetes. While nearly 26 million Americans have diabetes 8.3 percent of the U.S. population, unfortunately, 7 million of those are unaware they have this life threatening, chronic disease. Yet, early diagnosis is critical to successful treatment and delaying or preventing some of its complications such as heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, amputation and death. As diabetes has reached epidemic proportions, the Association is leading the call to all Americans to ensure that the general public has a full understanding that diabetes is not merely a condition, but a disease with deadly consequences. To increase the public awareness of diabetes, the American Diabetes Association reaches out to people affected by diabetes and their families and caregivers, at risk populations, health care professionals and the general public via targeted public awareness efforts and educational programs.The American Diabetes Association takes every opportunity to integrate critical public awareness messages into virtually every program and fundraising activity we do. Each of the 39.5 million pieces of direct mail that the Association sent out in 2011 contained an important, health oriented call to action, including take the diabetes risk test, see a health care professional or learn more about preventing diabetes and its complications. All of the Association special event activities and community based outreach events incorporate those same messages and calls to action.Stop DiabetesrStop Diabetes is the movement to end the devastating toll that diabetes takes on the lives of millions ofindividuals and families across the United States. Launched in November 2009, Stop Diabetes is the largest coordinated public awareness effort ever launched by the American Diabetes Association. It aims to inspire and mobilize the general public, volunteers, donors, corporations, and the scientific and medicalcommunities to rally around our cause. Stop Diabetes is threaded through every campaign, program andactivity offered by the Association as the visual personification of our mission and the reason for all of ourefforts.The main goals of the Stop Diabetes movement are to educate the general public about the devastating physical, emotional and financial toll diabetes wreaks every hour, every day, every year on tens of millions of American children and adults ignite a sense of urgency about diabetes and its deadly consequences and inspire individuals, families, communities, corporations and health care providers to get involved and join the movement to change the future of diabetes. Stop Diabetes provides millions with the opportunity to get involved and help raise awareness, promote healthy living, and raise money to fund educational outreach, advocacy efforts and critical research that will ultimately stop diabetes, once and for all.In 2011, two cornerstone events of the Stop Diabetes movement helped raise awareness and inspire individuals, communities and corporations across the country to join the cause.
Form 990 Part III	4 Continued...	American Diabetes Association Alert DayrAmerican Diabetes Association Alert Day is an annual one day ,wake up, call to inform the American public about type 2 diabetes risk factors and the importance of understanding your personal risk for this disease.

Reaching High Risk PopulationsCertain populations are disproportionally affected by diabetes, including African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders, women, and older adults. To help curb this inequity, the Association has put targeted community based programs in place and works closely with civic, social, faith based and health care representatives within these communities. The Association also frequently partners with other community and health organizations, such as the National Diabetes Education ProgramNDEP, and hosts an annual Disparities Partnership Forum that focuses on type 2 diabetes and co morbidities in high risk populations.We work locally to raise awareness and provide free educational resources that empower people to take control of their health. Our community and faith based programs and workshops give individuals, families, schools, and communities critical guidance and culturally competent tools and resources to help those affected by diabetes take control and make healthful lifestyle choices. Our programs help foster lifetime relationships, positive attitudes and behaviors needed to prevent and manage diabetes. Across the country, the Association offers targeted programs helping tens of thousands each year. Latino Hispanic, The rates of diabetes in the Latino community are almost double those of non Hispanic whites. Through our Por tu Familia program, targeting primarily Latino Hispanic populations, the Association provides high impact education to the Latino community in English and Spanish about the seriousness of diabetes and the importance of regular exercise and healthy eating. Given the diversity within the Latino community, Por Tu Familia employs a multifaceted approach, adaptable to a variety of community settings. Our outreach activities include workshops such as including Health and Flavor in the Latino Kitchen Salud ysabor en la cocina latina, a nutrition workshop, With All My Heart De todo corazon, a cardiovascular health workshop and Everybody Dance for Your Health Todos a bailar para su saludr, a physical activity workshop, as well as Feria de salud por tu familia, a street health fair that brings together thousands of community members interested in learning more about diabetes and diabetes management.Latino Initiatives Por tu Familia reached out to more than 13,000 participants through Conferencias and Ferias in 2011.

The latest Facebook tabs on Viviendo con diabetes tipo 2 Living With Type 2 Diabetes and 7 Pilares para el control de la diabetes 7 Pillars to control your diabetes generated 4,290 and 3,611 views respectively during its early live hours. This tool has been made possible due to the generous support of a Medtronics grant. The Spanish version of MyFoodAdvisor continued to expand as well adding 47 new recipes. African American. The Association Live Empowered program aims to increase awareness of the higher rates of diabetes among African Americans. According to the Center for Disease Control and prevention CDC, 4.9 million or 18.7 percent of non Hispanic blacks in the U.S. aged 20 years or older have diabetes. Live Empowered deepens the impact of diabetes education delivered to this audience about the seriousness of diabetes and its complications by teaching the importance of making healthy lifestyle choices and educating those with or at risk for developing diabetes about prevention and management. Community and faith based educational programs and workshops such as I Decide to Stop Diabetes Day at Church and Project POWER are important components of the Association Live Empowered initiative. One of its major campaigns, ID Day, experienced another successful year reaching more than 600,000 people in 1,083 churches in one month. Celebrities David and Tamela Mann from the TBS hit show Tyler Perry Meet the Browns served as the Association ID Day spokespersons for the second year.

The events stellar panelists spoke with more than 200 attendees during this conference. Overall, African American Initiatives Live EMPOWERED reached more than 1 million people in 2011. Native American, At a rate of nearly 17 percent, American Indians and Alaska Natives have the highest age-adjusted prevalence of diabetes among all U.S. racial and ethnic groups, where diabetes is four to eight times more common than in the general population. Awakening the Spirit encourages Native Americans to combat diabetes by making healthy food choices and becoming more physically active. Nationally and locally, Native American communities connect through Awakening the Spirit to encourage Congress to continue funding diabetes education programs in tribal communities. For example, the program was instrumental in advocating for the reauthorization of the Special Diabetes Program for Indians SDPI.The Association partnered with the National Council of Asian Pacific Islander Physicians, which organized a symposium, Diabetes in Asian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders A Call to Action. As a result, a coalition has been launched to focus on the impact of diabetes in these disparately impacted communities

		Form 990 Part III Line 4 Together we Can Change the Future of DiabetesOur mission, to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes, can be seen in everything we do. Diabetes is a growing epidemic that is taking a physical, emotional and financial toll on our country. In 2007, the total annual economic cost of diabetes in medical expenditures and lost productivity was estimated to be 174 billion. Factoring in the additional costs of undiagnosed diabetes, prediabetes and gestational diabetes brings the total cost to 218 billion. Recent estimates project that as many as 1 in 3 American adults will have diabetes by 2050 if present trends continue. In the United States, nearly 26 million people are living with diabetes and another 79 million have prediabetes and are at risk of developing the disease. For all of those individuals, their families and health care professionals, the American Diabetes Association works tirelessly every day to provide valuable programs and lifesaving resources, while moving us closer to a cure. A vision of life free of diabetes and all its burdens guides all of our work. Our Programs and activities touch the lives of people all over the world the promising researcher on the verge of finding a cure, the health care professional seeking the latest standards of care for patients, and the parent of a newly diagnosed child in need of support. Our commitment is unwavering and our impact is far-reaching.ResearchCommitment to a CureWe envision a world where research leads the way to putting an end to diabetes. Our funding creates a strong pipeline of innovative diabetes investigators who are dedicated to uncovering new ideas in diabetes research, translating discoveries into improved treatments and leading us toward an eventual cure for diabetes. Our commitment has contributed to hundreds of scientific accomplishments Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Types of Research AwardsThe 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. 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, 97 of researchers supported by the Association continue their careers in diabetes research. 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.Headlines from projects supported by the American Diabetes Association Research Program in 2011 included- Sugar-Sweetened Beverages Increase Risk of Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome, January 2011- Sperm Stem Cells Hold Promise for Type 1 Diabetes Treatment, February 2011 - Software Accurately Predicts Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued ... AdvocacyFighting For Your Future on the Front linesThe American Diabetes Association is an active advocate for everyone affected by diabetes. From Capitol Hill to statehouses around the country, we work tirelessly to promote laws and policies that meet the needs of people who have, or are at risk for, diabetes. We are leading 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.And our advocacy work does not end there. 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 more than 700 attorneys, 300 healthcare professionals and 100 advanced school advocates help thousands facing discrimination because of their diabetes. Our efforts have resulted in regulatory change in nearly 25 states that protect our constituent rights. The Association is there in school meetings, in court, at the statehouse fighting for someone with diabetes who has been placed at risk.In 2011, the Association advocacy work resulted in a significant number of victoriesThe Association celebrated its first full year of the Advocates in Action initiative, which continues to build capacity in local communities across the nation to engage people affected by diabetes in advocacy efforts. Both new and seasoned Diabetes Advocates were encouraged to get involved via a calendar of advocacy activities including efforts to keep kids safe at school, recess meetings with Members of Congress, submitting letters to editors and speaking to local community groups.In March 2011, more than 200 Diabetes Advocates descended on Capitol Hill for the Association biannual Call to Congress Stop Diabetes. In Form 990 Part III Line 4 Continued... Public Awareness and SupportImpacting Our CommunitiesIn 2011, approximately 1.9 million Americans aged 20 years or older heard the words you have diabetes. While nearly 26 million Americans have diabetes 8.3 percent of the U.S. population, unfortunately, 7 million of those are unaware they have this life threatening, chronic disease. Yet, early diagnosis is critical to successful treatment and delaying or preventing some of its complications such as heart disease, stroke, blindness, kidney disease, amputation and death. As diabetes has reached epidemic proportions, the Association is leading the call to all Americans to ensure that the general public has a full understanding that diabetes is not merely a condition, but a disease with deadly consequences. To increase the public awareness of diabetes, the American Diabetes Association reaches out to people affected by diabetes and their families and caregivers, at risk populations, health care professionals and the general public via targeted public awareness efforts and educational programs.The American Diabetes Association takes every opportunity to integrate critical public awareness messages into virtually every program and fundraising activity we do. Each of the 39.5 million pieces of direct mail that the Association sent out in 2011 contained an important, health oriented call to action, including take the diabetes risk test, see a health care professional or learn more about preventing diabetes and its complications. All of the Association special event activities and community based outreach events incorporate those same messages and calls to action.Stop DiabetesrStop Diabetes is the movement to end the devastating toll that diabetes takes on the lives of millions ofindividuals and families across the United States.
