Attending the national ADCES meeting in Houston, Texas, in August was special for me this year. I had a great time presenting on a topic near and dear to my heart: Strategies to Revitalize your Diabetes Program or Business.

This legacy talk allowed me to share actions to innovate, revitalize, and kick-start programs and projects that I have implemented in my practice settings and communities over the past 30 years.

In addition to presenting, I met new diabetes advocates and educators from across the United States, I had the opportunity to connect with old friends, catch up, and share hugs! I also took lots of notes on the presentations, ranging from therapy to stop the progression of type 1 diabetes to the co-relationship between mental health and diabetes.

To celebrate 25 years as the CEO of Diabetes Education Services and 30 years of specializing in diabetes, I am excited to offer my ADCES presentation, Strategies to Revitalize your Diabetes Program or Business for FREE on September 28th at 11:30 am PST. If you are starting a diabetes self-management program or want to revitalize your current practice, we invite you to join this one-hour webinar full of practical tips on advocating for the best health care in a variety of practice settings.

In addition, we will be discussing successful marketing strategies that work. We know that less than ten percent of people with diabetes attend a Diabetes Self-Management Program or see a registered dietitian. Yet, there is ample evidence that people with diabetes experience improved outcomes when receiving DSMES. Plus, the ADA recommends that all people with diabetes receive MNT and DSME regularly. As diabetes healthcare professionals, we need to actively close this gap and increase participant engagement within our communities.
