Ensuring that every person with diabetes receives the best possible care<\/h1>\n

Founded in 1967, International Diabetes Center\u00ae<\/sup>\u00a0is known internationally for its experience and expertise in patient education, professional training, research, and models for patient-centered care and quality improvement.<\/p>\n

We believe in a patient-centered, team approach to diabetes care.
