- HB3486 Report - Strategic Plan to Slow the Rate of Diabetes in Oregon (pdf 6MB) - The 2007 Oregon Legislature approved and Governor Kulongoski signed House Bill 3486, which declared an emergency related to diabetes and obesity. The bill directed the Oregon Department of Human Services (DHS) to develop by 2009 a strategic plan to start to slow the rate of diabetes caused by obesity and other environmental factors by 2010. The plan was to identify actions, including funding and statutory recommendations, that would reduce morbidity and mortality from diabetes by 2015. The plan was developed through a strategic planning process organized and staffed by the Health Promotion and Chronic Disease Prevention Section and Office of Family Health of the Oregon Public Health Division in DHS. The plan will be presented to the 2009 Oregon Legislature.
 Oregon's Action Plan for Diabetes (pdf) - describes goals, objectives, and strategies for reducing the burden of diabetes in Oregon. The Plan targets four topic areas: diabetes policy and advocacy, diabetes awareness and education, diabetes quality health systems, and access to diabetes data. The plan is intended to guide the activities of the Oregon Diabetes Coalition and local community organizations.
