American Association of Diabetes Educators
The American Association of Diabetes Educators, or AADE, is a multidisciplinary membership organization for healthcare professionals who specialize in teaching patients about diabetes and how to self-manage the disease.
Founded in 1973, AADE works to define the practice of diabetes education, increase patients’ access to the services of diabetes educators, and provide members with the support and tools to become leaders in the field of diabetes care.
AADE represents and supports diabetes educators by providing members with the resources to stay abreast of the current research, methods and trends in the field and by offering opportunities to network and collaborate with other healthcare professionals.
