Additional Resources for <strong>Program</strong><br />

Leaders and Participants<br />

The <strong>National</strong> <strong>Diabetes</strong> <strong>Education</strong> <strong>Program</strong>’s African American/African Ancestry Work Group<br />

developed the following list of additional resources based on its experiences in working<br />

with people who have diabetes and with the African American community. This list is not<br />

comprehensive; it is simply a place <strong>to</strong> begin. There are many other excellent resources. The<br />

resources listed below were chosen because they were used in the creation of the Health Plate/<br />

Healthy Weight curriculum.<br />
