Project Purpose:
The Lifestyles Diabetes Project has two primary goals.  First, we aim to reduce long-term and short-term diabetes-related complications for as many residents as possible that have already developed diabetes.  Second, we aim to promote awareness and prevention of diabetes in as many citizens as possible in the two-county area.

Project Service Area:
Lifestyles Diabetes Project will reach out to the citizens of Gibson County and Pike County, Indiana.  The project brings together a consortium of local organizations—Gibson General Hospital, the Gibson County Health Department, the Pike County Health Department, Tulip Tree Family Health Clinic, the Gibson County Council on Aging, the North Gibson School Corporation, and Brink’s Family Practice—along with the Indiana State Department of Health Diabetes Prevention and Control Program.
