Project Power | American Diabetes Association

No shame.
No blame.
Just one aim.

You didn't ask to live with prediabetes or type 2 diabetes and shouldn't feel guilty if you do. Project Power has always been here for kids, ages 5–12. Now Project Power is here for those 18 years or older. We're here to help the whole family.
