This month, we’re celebrating #DisabilityPride, recognizing how far we’ve come & also how far we have left to go to secure justice & equity for all people with #PWD in the U.S. Join us all month long to learn more & to celebrate the ADA anniversary later in July! #ADA2022 #C19LAP
This month, we’re celebrating the rights promised by the ADA & reflecting on what more must be done to make its promises a reality. 32 yrs later, disability remains a cause & consequence of poverty in the U.S. It’s time to secure economic justice for all disabled people! #ADA2022
According to polling from @TCFdotorg @DEJCollab & @DataProgress, 8 in 10 voters across the political spectrum support updating Supplemental Security Income’s outdated asset limit to help more people w/ disabilities thrive. Learn more: tcf.org/content/commen… #ADA2022

I'm now attending the symposium at #ADA2022 on diabetes care among people who are LGBTIQA+ 🏳️🌈🏳️⚧️
Great to see this on the program, especially during Pride Month.

Dr VanKim:
Prevalence of poverty is also higher in the LGBT community.
This statistic comes from the "LGBT poverty in the United States" report by Badgett et al: escholarship.org/content/qt37b6…

What's important to think about in an emergency:
What information, resources + supplies do people need?
What advocacy is needed?
Are there research opportunities here? e.g. COVID pandemic
Partnerships: how can we work together?

Nuha El Sayed: When a conflict happens, there's often a limited supply of insulin. People might have to switch to a type of insulin they didn't use before. There's a good switching guide available, but it was US centric. They've adapted it for the Ukraine.

At #ADA2022 this morning, Dr Anne Peters talking on "diabetes technology - panacea meets reality"
There's been a marked increase in the use of technology in the last decade. Mean A1c has improved significantly, but not enough to meet guidelines. Hospitalisations haven't reduced.

We have to take social determinants of health into account, and common stressors (e.g. deportation, loss of job, imprisonment, food insecurity). Giving people who are struggling devices won't necessarily help, and they're often stolen.

Having stressors like this makes it really hard to manage an already difficult condition.
It's also really hard to get help if you don't speak English. For example, calling a pump company if you require a translator often involves much longer hold times.

Always great to see a familiar face at #ADA2022! @janespeight from the @ACBRD is presenting on diabetes stigma
Diabetes has an image problem: it is often represented inaccurately in the media e.g. stock images of sugary foods.

The language used about diabetes is often stigmatising too. People with diabetes can experience stigma from the media, but also family, friends and health care professionals.
Consequences include emotional distress, hiding their diabetes, and impaired self-care

4 in 5 people with diabetes have some experience of stigma. Up to 20% have been discriminated against at work due to their diabetes.

Dr Rebekah Walker speaking at #ADA2022 about the influence of food insecurity on quality of life.
food insecurity = uncertain of having or being unable to get enough food because of insufficient money/other resources
food insecurity = uncertain of having or being unable to get enough food because of insufficient money/other resources
10.5% of US households were food insecure at some time during 2020. Those with diabetes and prediabetes are more likely to be food insecure. #ADA2022
Food insecurity in those with diabetes is associated with higher levels of diabetes distress, lower self efficacy, and worse glycemic outcomes. But what about quality of life? #ADA2022
