Form 990 III	4	The American Diabetes Association is leading the fight against the deadly consequences of diabetes and fighting for those affected by diabetes. To accomplish its mission, the Association funds research to prevent, cure and manage diabetes and its complications delivers services to communities across the United States provides objective and credible information through multiple media and channels and is actively involved in advocacy and awareness efforts to educate people about the disease and to give voice to those denied their rights because of diabetes.MISSION/FOCUS AREASThe 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. Diabetes is a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin. Insulin is a hormone that is needed to convert sugar, starches and other food into energy needed for daily life. The cause of diabetes continues to elude the medical community, although research has shown that both genetics and environmental factors such as obesity and lack of exercise appear to play roles.In the United States, 25.8 million children and adults have diabetes. While an estimated 18.8 million of those have been diagnosed with diabetes, unfortunately, 7 million are unaware that they have the disease. In addition, another 79 million Americans have prediabetes. Prediabetes is a condition that occurs when a persons blood glucose levels are higher than normal but not high enough for a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes. Diabetes kills more Americans every year than breast cancer and AIDS combined doubles the risk of heart attack and stroke and is the number one cause of blindness in adults. Diabetes costs the U.S. 174 billion each year. Recent estimates project that as many as 1 in 3 American adults will have diabetes by 2050 if present trends continue. The Associations ultimate goal is to Stop Diabetesr, once and for all. To render diabetes powerless, the Association funds research to prevent, cure and manage diabetes and its complications delivers services to communities across the United States provides objective and credible information through multiple media and channels and is actively involved in advocacy and awareness efforts to educate people about the disease and to give voice to those denied their rights because of diabetes. The American Diabetes Associations nationwide Stop Diabetes movement invites people to Share, Act, Learn and Give to help put an end to diabetes. At the end of 2010, the Association surpassed its goal of inspiring one million Americans to be part of this critical movement in its first full year of existence. At the American Diabetes Association, we take our responsibility seriously to be good financial stewards, while ensuring that the funds we raise benefit those affected by diabetes. An average of 73 of all expenses goes directly into mission activities that include funding diabetes research, delivering information to consumers and health care professionals, advocating on behalf of individuals with diabetes, and helping to educate the public about diabetes and its deadly consequences.
Form 990 III	4	RESEARCHThe 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. In 2010, the American Diabetes Association and its Research Foundation awarded 34.10 million in diabetes research grants. The Association supported more than 400 research projects at 146 leading research institutions in the United States. Over the years,through its continuing commitment to research,the American Diabetes Association has invested more than 550 million in diabetes research and provided funding for nearly 4,00 research projects.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 supported by the program 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. In support of the drive and potential of young and promising researchers, the program also offers training awards to support scientists interested in diabetes research at various stages through their careers. 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. The 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 2010 included-Ethnicity Plays a Role in the Development of Gestational Diabetes for Chinese and Korean-Americans, January 2010-Saving Limbs Using Gene Therapy and Stem Cells, February 2010-Links Between Immune System and Metabolism Uncovered, March 2010-Critical Enzyme in Fat Metabolism Provides Protection against Diet-induced Insulin Resistance in Mice, March 2010-Cell Function Regulated by Insulin in Healthy Humans, March 2010-Brain Hormones Regulate Diabetes and Female Fertility, April 2010-Obesity and Diabetes Lower Testosterone Levels in Men, June 2010-Genetic Markers for End-Stage Renal Disease in Type 1 Diabetes Identified, June 2010-Diet, Exercise, Anti-Diabetic Drugs Can Delay or Prevent Type 2 Diabetes for 10 Years, June 2010-Serotonin and Dietary Protein Control Risk for Gestational Diabetes, September 2010-Sugar-Sweetened Beverages Increase Risk of Type 2 Diabetes and Metabolic Syndrome, November 2010-Association-funded Software Accurately Predicts Optimization of Type 1 Diabetes Treatment, December 2010-Sperm Stem Cells Hold Promise for Type 1 Diabetes Treatment, December 2010Promotion of Scientific and Medical ResearchScientific SessionsScientific 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.

Diabetes Advocates around the country work to increase federal and state funding to prevent, treat and cure diabetes prevent diabetes and improve access to adequate and affordable health care and eliminate discrimination against people with diabetes at school, work and elsewhere in their lives.In 2010, the Associations advocacy work resulted in a significant number of victories -The American Diabetes Association fought tirelessly to ensure that the federal health care reform included in the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act addressed the needs of people with, and at risk for, diabetes. Once fully implemented, the law will ensure people with diabetes no longer face discrimination in the insurance market because of their diabetes and no longer need to worry their insurance will be taken away from them when they need it most. The law also offers an array of help for children, young adults, and low and moderate income people with diabetes. It includes many key prevention measures the Association fought for, including a 15 billion fund for wellness and prevention, authorizing the National Diabetes Prevention Program aimed at those with prediabetes, and requiring menu labeling at certain restaurants. -The Association was successful in securing a two-year reauthorization of the Special Diabetes Program. As a result, the Special Statutory Funding Program for Type 1 Diabetes Research and the Special Diabetes Programs for Indians will receive an additional 600 million to be used for research to prevent, treat, and cure diabetes and for programs aimed at those Americans most disproportionately impacted by diabetes. -The Safe at School Campaign continued to protect the health and educational opportunities of children with diabetes across the country through the four pronged approach of educate, negotiate, litigate, and legislate. Trained volunteers conducted 100 workshops to teach parents how to advocate for their children. A major settlement reached by the Justice Department will help protect the rights of children with diabetes in child care. The Association passed new laws in Florida and Illinois to protect students with diabetes from segregation and to enable them to self-manage their condition when they are able to do so and receive diabetes care from trained volunteer staff when they need help.-In September, the California state Supreme Court granted the Associations petition to review a state appeals court ruling, and decide whether trained school employees who arent nurses can give insulin shots to diabetic children. In June, a state appeals court in Sacramento said California law allows only doctors and nurses to administer medication, including insulin injections. The ruling overturned a 2007 settlement agreement between the state Department of Education and the American Diabetes Association. The Association claimed that California schools do not have enough nurses to care for diabetic children who are too young to test their own blood and inject insulin. The settlement required schools to train non-nursing employees to test childrens blood sugar, if a child is unable to do so, and to administer insulin if licensed nurses are unavailable. The Association argues that state law does not prohibit school employees who are not nurses from volunteering to help children with diabetes by administering needed insulin to those who cannot self-administer.-In a victory in the fight against childhood obesity and its tie to the growing diabetes epidemic, the Association was instrumental in the passage of legislation to reauthorize federal child nutrition programs, providing increased resources for schools to serve healthier school meals, getting junk food out of cafeterias and vending machines, and providing assistance for school districts to improve their local wellness policies. In addition, 10 states passed school nutrition and physical activity bills.-The Association continued in its leadership role in enforcing the Americans with Disabilities Act Amendments Act by working with federal agencies, lawyers and health care providers to ensure all people with diabetes are protected from discrimination in employment, education and other areas. -Victories in the Associations fight against employment discrimination included settlements that set standards for fair treatment in jobs ranging from truck driving to telecommunications to office management.-The Association kicked off the new Advocates in Action initiative which is building advocacy capacity in local communities and engaging grassroots and grasstops advocates throughout the year via a calendar of advocacy activities.
Form 990 III	4	Awareness, Education and SupportIn 2010, about 1.9 million Americans aged 20 years or older heard the words you have diabetes. While nearly 26 million Americans have diabetes 8.3 of the U.S. population, sadly, 7 million of those are unaware they have this life-long 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, all Americans must understand that diabetes is not just a condition, but a disease with deadly consequences. To increase the publics awareness of diabetes and the related urgency, 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 integrates a public awareness message into virtually every program and fund-raising activity. Stop DiabetesrStop Diabetesr, the American Diabetes Associations nationwide movement which invites people to Share, Act, Learn and Give to help put an end to diabetes, was very successful in 2010. A total of 1,074,660 people new to the Association took an action in an effort to Stop Diabetes between November 1, 2009 and December 31, 2010. The Associations goal is to inspire three million new supporters by 2012.The main goals of the Stop Diabetesr 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.American Diabetes Association Alert Day SMAmerican Diabetes Association Alert Day is a one-day wake-up call to inform the American public about the seriousness of diabetes, particularly when diabetes is left undiagnosed or untreated. Observed on the fourth Tuesday of every March, Diabetes Alert Day encourages Americans through various media channels and community-based outreach efforts to take the Diabetes Risk Test in-person, at stopdiabetes.com or by calling 1-800-DIABETES.The 22nd American Diabetes Association Alert Day took place on March 23, 2010. On Diabetes Alert Day, stopdiabetes.com had 24,000 visitors 82,000 visitors during the month of March, which was 300 more than an average day. Overall, Diabetes Alert Day generated more than 205 million impressions.American Diabetes MonthrObserved each November, American Diabetes Month ADM incorporates local and national activities that focus on people with diabetes and all those affected by diabetes to raise awareness about the disease as well as its potentially life-threatening diabetes-related complications such as heart disease, stroke, kidney disease, blindness and amputation.During ADM in November 2010, the American Diabetes Association asked people across the country, How will you Stop Diabetesr The future is in your hands. Through various high impact promotional activities, the Association gained thousands of additional supporters for its Stop Diabetes movement while helping people nationwide understand the urgency of the Associations mission. Total outreach was tallied at more than 910 million impressions, which included national and local media coverage, web traffic, social media efforts, Association promotional channels and collaborative efforts. American Diabetes Association EXPOThe American Diabetes Association EXPO is the nations premier diabetes education and awareness initiative, bringing together leading brands and concerned audiences to promote awareness, review the latest products and services available, and change the future of diabetes.

Form 990 III	4	Reaching High-risk PopulationsCertain populations -- including African Americans, Latinos, Native Americans, Asian American, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders, Women, and Older Adults -- are disproportionally affected by diabetes. For example, African Americans are 1.6 times more likely to have diabetes than non-Latino whites, and in some Native American communities, one in two adults has diabetes. To help curb this inequity, the American Diabetes 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 Program NDEP, and hosts an annual Disparities Partnership Forum that focuses on type 2 diabetes and co-morbidities in high-risk populations.African American Programs -- Live EMPOWEREDAccording to the Center for Disease Control and Prevention CDC, 4.9 million or 18.7 of non-Hispanic blacks in the U.S. aged 20 years or older have diabetes. Live EMPOWERED aims to increase awareness of the rates of diabetes among African Americans. The initiative 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 Diabetesr Day at Church and Project POWERr are important components of Live EMPOWERED. Through fun and informative workshops conducted by trained Association staff and volunteers, community members can learn more about diabetes as well as the importance of making healthy food choices and being physically active on a regular basis.Live EMPOWERED saw great success in the third year of its I Decide to Stop Diabetes at Church ID Day initiative, reaching more than 700,000 people in 992 churches in November. This marked a 50 increase over 2009. Celebrities David and Tamela Mann from the TBS hit show Meet the Browns served as the Associations ID Day spokespersons. Additional 2010 highlights included the new relationship with Alpha Kappa Alpha and the September 2010 Choose to Live African American Women and Diabetes symposium in collaboration with BET Foundation along with more than 600 workshops delivered to more than 19,000 participants.Overall, African American Programs reached a total of 1,044,446 people in 2010.Latino Programs -- Por Tu FamiliarDiabetes is an urgent health problem in the Latino community. The rates of diabetes are almost double those of non-Hispanic whites. Through Por tu familia, or for your family, the American Diabetes 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. Outreach activities include various educational and culturally appropriate workshops including Health and Flavor in the Latino Kitchen Salud y sabor 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.In 2010, Por tu Familia launched the Spanish version of MyFoodAdvisor. In addition, My Child, Our Diabetes Mi hijo, nuestra diabetes, a new booklet designed for Latino families with children recently diagnosed with type 1 diabetes, premiered. Other successes included a grant from Medtronic to add a text reading tool in both English and Spanish on diabetes.org and portufamilia.org the re-launch of altoaladiabetes.com to provide comprehensive information in Spanish related to the Stop Diabetes movement as well as nine Feria de Salud events attracting more than 20,000 people along with more than 650 workshops delivered to nearly 22,000 participants.Overall, Latino Programs reached a total of 450,443 people in 2010.
Form 990 III	4	Native American Programs -- Awakening the SpiritAt a rate of nearly 17, American Indians and Alaska Natives have the highest age-adjusted prevalence of diabetes among all U.S. racial and ethnic groups. The American Diabetes Association provides educational outreach programs to help these communities combat the growth of this deadly disease. Awakening the Spirit is the Associations way to carry a message of hope to Native people that type 2 diabetes is preventable and treatable. 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.Awakening the Spirit presented the second annual John Pipe Voices For Change Award in 2010, recognizing Special Diabetes Programs for Indians SDPI recipients for their effective diabetes prevention and treatment services in the American Indian and Alaskan Native communities. Eight programs received recognition in advocacy, innovation and outcomes award categories.Overall, Native American Programs reached a total of 19,013 people in 2010.Asian American, Native Hawaiian and Pacific Islander AANHPI Work GroupAsian Americans, Native Hawaiians and Pacific Islanders are an extremely diverse and growing population. According to the 2010 Census, 15.5 million U.S. residents reported that they were Asian alone or Asian in combination with one or more other races. Another 1.1 million U.S. residents report they are Native Hawaiian or Pacific Islander. Although Asian Americans tend to have a lower body weight, they are more likely than Caucasians to be affected by diabetes with 10 of the Asian American population living with diabetes today. In 2010, the AANHPI Work Group continued to conduct market research to guide in the development of a program that meets the needs of AANHPI communities. Targeting South Asians and Native Hawaiians, the American Diabetes Association reached out to health centers and other community-based organizations serving these two communities to ask their assistance in the dissemination of a survey to capture the voice of the consumer. The survey results confirmed that these two populations are seeking information from the American Diabetes Association, especially related to making traditional foods more diabetes-friendly and diabetes-related complications.
