Across the country, the Canadian Diabetes Association is leading the fight against diabetes by helping people with diabetes live healthy lives while we work to find a cure.
We are supported in our efforts by a community-based network of volunteers, employees, healthcare professionals, researchers and partners.
We deliver our mission by:
- Providing people with diabetes and healthcare professionals with education and services
- Advocating on behalf of people with diabetes
- Supporting research
- Translating that research into practical applications
We live our mission through our values. It is only by being truly focused and committed to helping people with diabetes that we can become truly relevant in their lives. We do this through:
Excellence. We pursue extraordinary accomplishments and aspire to excellence in what we do every day.
Partnership. We foster strong, collaborative relationships with our professional and community volunteers, our members, our supporters, our employees and people with diabetes.
Innovation. We have the courage to relentlessly pursue ideas that will enable us to achieve our vision.
Integrity. We work to ensure that we honour the dreams of our founders. We act ethically and with accountability.
Respect. We value the skills, strengths and perspectives of our employees, volunteers and partners.
Your generosity allows us to help Canadians live life to the fullest while living with diabetes. Visit diabetes.ca for more information.
