Indiana Diabetes Profile

Diagnosed diabetes is prevalent across all 50 states and Washington, DC. People with diabetes are at high risk of heart disease, stroke, and other serious complications, such as kidney failure, blindness, and amputation of a toe, foot, or leg. CDC’s Division of Diabetes Translation (DDT) focuses on preventing type 2 diabetes, reducing diabetes complications and disability, and reducing diabetes-related disparities, which are differences in health across geographic, racial, ethnic, and socioeconomic groups.

Indiana Diabetes Action Plan

DDT Direct Funding to Indiana

Indiana receives funding and technical support from CDC to work to prevent and manage diabetes, heart disease, and stroke. States implement and evaluate evidence-based strategies to help people manage diabetes and prevent or delay onset of type 2 diabetes in high-burden populations and communities. See DP18-1815 for more information.

This cooperative agreement supports 10 national organizations that have affiliate program delivery sites to further build the National Diabetes Prevention Program infrastructure. These organizations work to increase the availability of the evidence-based lifestyle change program for groups that are underrepresented in the program relative to their disease burden and risk. These groups include Medicare beneficiaries; men; African American, Asian American, Hispanic, American Indian/Alaska Native, Pacific Islander persons; and people with visual or physical disabilities. Since 2018, 2 organizations supported by funding from this cooperative agreement were delivering the program in Indiana, including:

Black Women's Health Imperative
Trinity Health

See DP17-1705 for more information.
