World Diabetes Day💉
On World Diabetes Day, we at Veterans First would like to shine a light on a global health challenge that affects over 37 million Americans (and disproportionately impacts our veterans).
Why It Matters for Veterans:
* Veterans are more likely to develop Type 2 diabetes due to service-related stress, lifestyle changes, and exposure to certain chemicals.
* Many face barriers to consistent care, especially after transitioning out of active duty.
This year’s theme is Access to Diabetes Care; a call to action to ensure every veteran has the tools, education, and support they need to manage their health.
Let’s raise awareness and advocate for better care. Because those who’ve served deserve nothing less.
