Divabetic!

DIVABETIC was inspired by Luther Vandross and created by his assistant, Max Szadek.

The project is a sassy, fun and energetic Diabetic outreach program to build self esteem and positive attitudes. Divabetics encourages early detection and prevention.

The principles of Divabetic- BEE-A-DIVA Workshops are:

• Be Visible
• Be Informed
• Be Disciplined
