Under this programme, training is imparted to doctors, health care workers, teachers, school children and volunteers. Identification of high risk population is done for screening of diabetes by specially trained team of workers. The whole population is given life style modification advice. People who are diagnosed as diabetic are screened for complications. We have reach more than 20 million people through awareness, education and detection campaigns through use of various medias such as TV, radio, newspaper, pamphlets, posters, banners etc. We also distribute diabetes awareness booklets free of cost to people attending screening camps.

India is leading in number of type 1 diabetes cases in South East Asia Region. Lack of education and improper care leads to various complications. Many of the complications of Type 1 diabetes are potentially preventable if these children manage their disease carefully and undergo screening for complications regularly. Type 1 children are dependent on the parents and pose additional burden to the society. The cost of bringing up these children may not give any reward in terms of social benefit and that is why society neglects these children. We are taking an initiative to establish a dedicated centre of excellence for type 1 diabetes patients. We are providing free education, better clinical care at free/subsidised rate through a dedicated team to treat type 1 patients exclusively. We provide prevention & screening for complications of diabetes at free/ subsidised rate, indoor facilities when required at free/subsidised rate , psychological, career and marriage counselling. We carry out research activities regarding Type 1 diabetes and various other activities to spread message to common people and involve them actively.
