BACKGROUND The Special Diabetes Programs for Indians (SDPI) was created by Congress as part of the Balanced Budget Act of 1997, Public Law 105-33, in recognition of the disproportionate impact of diabetes in American Indian and Alaskan Native (AI/AN) communities. The Tribal Leaders Diabetes Committee (TLDC) was created by the Director of the Indian Health Service (IHS) in 1998. The TLDC recommends a process for distributing SDPI funds to the IHS Director. The TLDC also provides IHS and Tribal leadership with an ongoing forum to discuss all matters related to diabetes and the impact of other chronic diseases on AI/AN communities. The TLDC plays a key role in ensuring that the IHS consults with Tribes before making decisions on diabetes treatment and prevention efforts. The Area Diabetes Consultants (ADCs) support SDPI by serving as project officers for the SDPI program, coordinating the IHS diabetes network to facilitate bi-directional information flow between Area and national levels, providing diabetes training and resources to health care professionals and paraprofessionals in IHS, and working with IHS Division of Diabetes Treatment and Prevention (DDTP) to translate and disseminate the latest scientific findings in diabetes treatment and prevention.
