Yvette Roubideaux Honored by American Diabetes Association

Congratulations to Yvette Roubideaux, MD, MPH, from Tucson, Arizona. She has been honored by the American Diabetes Association (ADA) with the Addison B. Scoville Award, which is given away for outstanding volunteer service.

R. Stewart Perry, ADA Chair said, “Her contributions to the diabetes community stretches over many years and her continued dedication to diabetes awareness directly support the American Diabetes Association’s mission to prevent and cure diabetes and to improve the lives of all people living with diabetes.” ~source

I love that the ADA recognizes volunteers, because they really help highlight diabetes. The more people that know and understand the disease, the better able we are to find a cure.
