diabetes + advocacy

your voice belongs in policy conversations.

The people who know diabetes best are the ones managing it every day. 

We mobilize young adults, amplify their voices, and connect them to the organizations doing the work at the local and national level.

Diabetes Patient Advocacy Coalition

Diabetes Patient Advocacy Coalition
(DPAC) brings patients directly into federal diabetes policy conversations. The Diabetes Link works closely with DPAC to connect our community to their Champions program, where young adults take action both virtually and in person — from contacting legislators and signing onto advocacy letters to attending national advocacy days on Capitol Hill.

Becoming a Champion means your lived experience becomes part of a coordinated push for change
