Addressing Diabetes Through Community Solutions for Healthy Food Access
The MDH Diabetes and Health Behavior Unit seeks community-based proposals to address food and nutrition security for people with diabetes or prediabetes.
Project proposals should implement activities that help achieve outcomes outlined in Minnesota’s Action Plan to Address Cardiovascular Disease, Stroke, and Diabetes 2035 (MN 2035 Plan). Applicants will be asked to describe how they will pilot or expand innovative models that address food and nutrition security among people who are disproportionately affected by prediabetes and diabetes.
