Our Vision - A dynamic and sustainable diabetes coalition.


The Dakota Diabetes Coalition (DDC) is made up of people from various organizations across the state who network on how to most effectively improve diabetes prevention, education and care. Linked to the North Dakota Department of Health and Healthy North Dakota, DDC members share resources and tools proven to be effective. Most importantly, members share time and ideas.
