The Event:
Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes benefits the American Diabetes Association and is the signature one-day, fundraising and awareness walk taking place in 121 cities across the United States. Participants join the Stop Diabetes® movement by registering and recruiting co-workers, friends and family members to walk and raise money for our mission: to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes. The day of Step Out: Walk to Stop Diabetes is a party to celebrate
and honor Red Striders – walkers with type 1, type 2 or gestational diabetes, the fundraising accomplishments of our teams and individuals, as well as an opportunity to promote awareness about the seriousness of diabetes in our local community.

THE ASSOCIATION: We are the only organization committed to helping the 25.8 million children and adults with all types of diabetes, as well as those at risk. Through the tireless efforts of thousands of volunteers and staff across the country, we dedicate ourselves to
