Description
Kara Saiki leads a 2026 survey study of a media campaign in Hawai'i that urged adults at risk for type 2 diabetes to join a prevention program. The state campaign, called Beat Diabetes, ran from July to October 2024, with a focus on Native Hawaiian, Pacific Islander, and Filipino communities, which face high diabetes rates. A survey of 860 at-risk adults followed.
Forty percent of respondents recalled the campaign. Those who had seen it gave higher ratings for how likely they were to join a prevention program. They also scored higher on believing diabetes may be unavoidable, a belief the campaign may need to address. The design is a one-time survey, so it shows links rather than proof that the campaign caused the difference.
