ack to 2006, when the idea of creating a social network for a higher purpose was born, later turning into TuDiabetes.com(R). EsTuDiabetes.com (a sister community in Spanish) followed, along with the Foundation's first diabetes awareness program, Word In Your Hand(TM), which was born within the community.

TuDiabetes.com(R) started in March 2007 and EsTuDiabetes.com was launched in August 2007. With more than 16,000 combined members, both social networks have become top destinations for people searching for support and information about diabetes.

In March 2009, ChangeDiabetesNow.org was started to showcase educational materials created by diabetes community members while serving as an outlet for creative expression and raising diabetes awareness. All of the awareness programs of the Diabetes Hands Foundation can be found on this web site.
