Lions work with the National Diabetes Education Program (NDEP) to promote diabetes awareness. NDEP is a leading public education program that promotes diabetes prevention and control in the USA. NDEP also provides diabetes resources and publications.
We also commemorate World Diabetes Day, an annual campaign led by the International Diabetes Federation on November 14. Lions often facilitate diabetes community awareness events on this day.
