Texans are increasingly feeling the effects of diabetes, and many others may have diabetes and don't 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.

Want to know your risk? Take the test.

That is why the American Diabetes Association®'s (ADA) North Texas office is so committed to educating the public about how to stop diabetes and support those living with the disease. The North Texas market serves Dallas, Fort Worth, McKinney, Waco, Wichita Falls, Tyler, Longview, Abilene, Odessa, Midland, Lubbock, El Paso, Amarillo, and everywhere in-between.

We are here to help!
