Our Mission is to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people affected by diabetes .

The American Diabetes Assocation's Corpus Christi office hosts three major fundraising events each year (Step Out Walk to Stop Diabetes, Tour de Cure, and Father of the Year) as well as a week-long day camp for type 1 diabetic kids ages 5-17.

The fundraising events fund research, materials and support for newly diagnosed diabetics, local outreach, advocacy, and other activites that support our mission.
