Review for SSEP, Fountain Vly, CA, USA

Rating: 5 stars  

Diabetes during pregnancy is a serious condition, causing many complications, most of which can be prevented. Sweet Success Diabetes and Pregnancy program was so successful in CA, it needed to be shared with programs in other states. Standards of practice are changing so rapidly that it is difficult for health care professionals to stay current. Therefore, the need was for health care professional education. training. SSEP was implemented to meet this need.

I've personally experienced the results of this organization in...

Watching it grow to become a nationally recognized program providing quality diabetes and reproductive health services.

If I had to make changes to this organization, I would...

find a way to increase resources so more services could be available to health care professionals and patients. This would improve pregnancy outcomes and future quality of life for mothers and children.

What I've enjoyed the most about my experience with this nonprofit is...

It's comittment to improving pregnancy outcomes, improving long term health for mothers and children but finding ways to change behavior and positively lifestyles.

The kinds of staff and volunteers that I met were...

totally committed to the program mission.

If this organization had 10 million bucks, it could...

battle the dual battles against diabetes and obesity.

Ways to make it better...

we had more resources.

In my opinion, the biggest challenges facing this organization are...

lack of resources and lack of knowledge.
