Membership

Your membership to DAI allows us to provide services to the Greater New Bedford and Fall River areas. Our programs include programs to help control and manage Type 1 and Type 2 Diabetes, Prevention of Type 2 Diabetes in children and adults, and Camp Kyle T. Woodruff for Children with Diabetes, our premiere program. In 2005:

• 75 children and teens with diabetes attended Camp Kyle for Children with Diabetes.
• Schools throughout the region obtained diabetes supplies, classroom presentation, and in-service training for school personnel to normalize and safeguard the school experience of their students with diabetes.
• Over 150 adults participated in Ask a Dietitian, Ask a Diabetes Expert and Diabetes on the Road at our center and throughout the community.
• Each month, approximately 45 people drop-in to the Diabetes Self-Management & Prevention Center at 170 Pleasant Street in Fall River, Ma.
• 360 families benefit from our Youth Programs.
