The Utah Department of Health Diabetes Prevention and Control Program (DPCP) has been funded since 1980 by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

The Program works in partnerships to improve the quality of life of all Utahns at risk for, or affected by, diabetes by: 

• Informing Utahns of the seriousness, symptoms, and risk factors of diabetes
• Helping Utahns with diabetes learn to control their diabetes and prevent complications
• Increasing awareness of methods to prevent type 2 diabetes in Utahns with impaired fasting glucose or impaired glucose tolerance
• Decreasing or delay complications due to unmanaged diabetes
• Improving insurance coverage for Utahns with diabetes
• Assuring access to high quality diabetes education programs
• Promoting improved quality of medical care in local communities.
