Corporate Collaborator Spotlight
As the campaign comes to a close, we’d like to thank all of our corporate collaborators that have made the Together 2 Goal® campaign and extension possible. The Janssen Pharmaceuticals Companies of Johnson & Johnson have been involved with Together 2 Goal® since the campaign launch in 2016. Now, nearly five years later, they continue to support us as the Presenting Corporate Collaborator for the campaign extension. Because of this support, T2G has been able to provide a variety of unique offerings specific to the campaign extension, including the Toolkit Supplement, Webinars at Work, Plank Mentors, and enhanced resources like our interactive campaign planks.
Thank you, Janssen!

Resource of the Month
Even though
the relationship between obesity and the risk of Type 2 diabetes is well known,
navigating weight conversations with patients can
still
be challenging
.
Body Mass Index (BMI): An Important Tool for Your Patients with Diabetes is a tool from the Janssen Pharmaceuticals Companies of Johnson & Johnson that provides a brief overview of BMI, explains current BMI quality measures, includes discussion points for BMI conversations with patients, and offers tips for talking to patients about achieving a healthier BMI. Consider using this tool to refresh your talking points around BMI before your next patient visit!
