The Texas Diabetes Council is legislatively mandated to develop and implement a state plan for diabetes treatment, education and training. Diabetes and Disparity is the theme for the 2008-09 plan, focusing on disparities in diabetes prevalence and mortality, and the inequities in diabetes education and care that contribute to a growing burden of diabetes in Texas.

In March 2008, the Texas Diabetes Council released five new public service announcements for radio focusing on the prevention of type 2 diabetes and its complications.  The new spots first aired on Diabetes Alert Day, March 25, with messages related to pre-diabetes, risk factors for diabetes, preventing diabetes through physical activity and healthy eating, and complications of diabetes. 

PSAs for Spanish radio feature the National Diabetes Education Program (NDEP) campaign theme Prevengamos la diabetes tipo 2. Paso a Paso (Prevent type 2 diabetes. Step by Step).
