Managing Diabetes - It’s not easy, but it’s worth it.
In 2009, NDEP refreshed its Control Your Diabetes. For Life. campaign. The new messages communicate the seriousness of diabetes, the importance of managing the disease to prevent or delay complications, the idea that managing diabetes is not easy but it is worth it, and the importance of making a plan. The print public service announcement and poster series feature people from around the country living with diabetes who reflect a diversity of ethnicity and age.
