Who We Are...

The NFB Diabetes Action Network is an advocacy and peer support group,
established by the National Federation of the Blind because diabetes is a
leading cause of blindness. Members work together as we manage our diabetes

.         Foot problems and amputations

.         Transplants

.         Neuropathy

.         Heart disease

.         Sexual dysfunction

Our Mission...

The Diabetes Action Network, a division of the National Federation of the
Blind, educates, empowers, and inspires people (blind and sighted) living
with diabetes and its complications. We share our "can-do" philosophy
through volunteer peer support and advocacy for diabetes technology
accessible to the blind. We challenge one another to live our best and
fullest lives.

What We Do...

Educate: Through our peer networks and publications we share strategies and
technology advice to manage diabetes and its complications.

Empower: We help each other overcome our obstacles and self-manage our
diabetes with confidence.

Inspire: We share our personal success stories to show everyone that we can
thrive despite our complications.
