Diabetes Awareness Month Cafecito with National LULAC Wednesday, November 17, 2021

Diabetes Awareness Month aims to bring awareness to a condition that affects millions of people in the United States. On average, Latinos are more likely to have prediabetes and type 2 diabetes than non-Hispanic whites, and they’re more likely to develop it at a younger age. According to the CDC, US adults have a 40% chance of developing type 2 diabetes, while Latino American adults have more than a 50% chance.
