Happy November,
Nearly 16% of American adults — that’s close to 1 in 6 — now has diabetes, according to the latest data from the CDC. Along with social determinants of health, education seems to matter: While about 20% of Americans with a high school degree have diabetes, the rate falls to 10.7% for people with a college degree.
To help increase awareness, we have compiled a list of our favorite FREE diabetes information resources in English and Spanish to empower people with prediabetes and diabetes to take action.
Did you know dietary choices can improve eye health? While glucose management is essential in reducing the risk of retinopathy, nutritional strategies that reduce glycemic variability, blood pressure, inflammation, and oxidative stress significantly impact retinal health and vision.

We are excited to announce the launch of the Diabetes Care Provider Directory, spearheaded by Diversity in Diabetes. This inclusive organization aims to connect individuals with healthcare professionals who want to provide care for people from diverse experiences, fostering a collaborative environment for effective diabetes care.
Lastly, to help everyone feel their best this holiday season, we are sharing our popular handout highlighting Ten Strategies to Survive the Holiday commotion and another info sheet on reframing diabetes distress.
We hope you can join our FREE webinars in celebration of National Diabetes Month. We are sincerely grateful for your ongoing dedication to improving diabetes care.
With gratitude and appreciation,
Coach Beverly, Bryanna, Tiffany, Christine, Andrew, and Ginger
