The public health impact of type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease is too significant for one organization to tackle alone. The American Heart Association (AHA) and the American Diabetes Association (ADA) joined forces in 2018 to form Know Diabetes by Heart™ to combat the link between type 2 diabetes and cardiovascular disease.
