Floridians are increasingly feeling the effects of diabetes as thousands of people suffer from the disease, and many others may have diabetes and not know it! It is estimated that one out of every three children born after 2000 in the United States will be directly affected by diabetes.

That is why the American Diabetes Association's Jacksonville office is so committed to educating the public about how to stop diabetes and support those living with the disease.

We are here to help you.

Step Out Walk to Stop Diabetes
November 9, 2013

Step Out is celebrating its 21st Anniversary in Jacksonville! Please come join us.  Start at the Riverside Arts Market for a full day of fun and wellness!  Walkers will begin under the canopy of the Fuller Warren Bridge and take off on a 4 mile walk/run along the First Coast’s beautiful Riverfront. For a lighter pace, participants can choose to walk the 1 mile route with optional exercise activities included. End at the Finish Line Lane for refreshments, Top Team Tents, Champion VIP lounge and Diabetes Expo.

Register today. Contact Mandy Intravaia at aintravaia@diabetes.org or 888-DIABETES or 904-730-7200 ext. 3103 for walker, team, sponsor or volunteer information.
