our core values
our service
The Belize Diabetes Association of New York (BDANY) was formed in 2002. Its establishment stemmed from the growing concern about the prevalence of diabetes within the Belizean community in New York City and the urgent need for education, support, and resources to address this health issue. BDANY was founded to raise awareness about diabetes, provide support to individuals living with diabetes, and promote prevention and management strategies within the Belizean diaspora.
Today, BDANY has expanded its scope and services and has become the Belize Diabetes, Heart and Stroke Association of New York (BDHSANY).
