Innovative State and Local Public Health Strategies to prevent and Manage Diabetes and Heart Disease and Stroke-

 

The purpose of this program is to design, test, and evaluate novel approaches to addressing a set of evidence based strategies aimed at reducing risks, complications, and/or barriers to prevention and control of diabetes and cardiovascular disease among high-burden populations. The Selection of high burden populations will be based on a robust analysis of diabetes and cardiovascular health burden across geographic areas and population subgroups. Population subgroups may be defined by factors such as race or ethnicity, gender, age [e.g. youth and older adults], education, income, disability, or sexual orientation, among others.
