Exploring Policy Options for Better Diabetes Outcomes in Ontario

The Canadian Diabetes Association became Diabetes Canada on February 13, 2017 to shed light on the diabetes epidemic Canada is facing. It's taking a monumental toll on our health.

Now is the time to do more - much more.

By speaking with a stronger, clearer voice, Diabetes Canada will raise the profile of diabetes and bring more Canadians to our cause.

On November 4, 2014, Diabetes Canada brought together key stakeholders on the forefront of healthy public policy development, clinical change and technological innovation to explore learnings to date and promising approaches to inform policy development in three critical areas:

Foot care
Optimal blood glucose monitoring and testing
Children and youth with diabetes in school

This Diabetes Policy Summit provided a forum for stakeholders in the diabetes community to identify gaps in the care and management of diabetes, as well as share and explore promising solutions to close these gaps in Ontario.
