The "SCREEN for Type 1 Diabetes Act of 2026" amends the Public Health Service Act to mandate a national public awareness campaign focused on type 1 diabetes. This campaign, to be carried out by the Secretary of Health and Human Services through the Director of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, aims to enhance awareness and knowledge among healthcare providers and the public regarding type 1 diabetes detection, screening, and management. Key provisions include the development of evidence-based written materials detailing early symptoms, screening availability, and medically appropriate resources. The campaign will also utilize public service announcements across various media, including social media, television, and radio, to educate the public on early detection and the importance of screening. The Secretary is directed to consult with a wide range of stakeholders, such as health care provider associations, nonprofit organizations, public health departments, and educational institutions, to ensure the campaign's effectiveness. Resources developed will be culturally and linguistically competent , tailored specifically for communities experiencing significant increases in type 1 diabetes incidence. Furthermore, the bill authorizes grants and cooperative agreements to nonprofit entities for campaign implementation and to State, local, and Tribal public health departments to boost screening efforts. An annual appropriation of $5,000,000 is authorized for fiscal years 2027 through 2031 to fund these initiatives, and a report to Congress on the campaign's impact is required within one year of enactment.
