Welcome to the CDSMP Provider pages! This information is to be used by local programs that offer the Chronic Disease Self Management Program and Diabetes Self-Management Program.

Elevator speeches:
An elevator speech is a concise description of the program that can be delivered in the time it takes for a short elevator ride – about 30 seconds. The strength of this speech is its brevity and clear message so limit it to 100-130 words. This can be a very useful tool for promoting CDSMP, especially on the first or “cold” call to a potential partner or during a brief encounter with a potential participant. Included below are an article and two samples of elevator speeches, pitched to specific audiences.
