The Indian Health Service has announced supplemental funding for the Special Diabetes Program for Indians (SDPI) following its FY 2026 reauthorization. The program has long been one of the most successful Native health initiatives in the country, helping tribal communities reduce diabetes complications and improve health outcomes.

Diabetes continues to impact Native communities at some of the highest rates in the United States, making sustained funding a major priority for tribal leaders, healthcare providers, and families. The additional funding will help support prevention, treatment, education, and community-based health programs across Indian Country.
