Managing diabetes can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to face it alone. The Aging and Disability Resource Center (ADRC) of Green County is offering Healthy Living with Diabetes, an evidence-based self-management workshop designed to empower participants with the knowledge and tools to take control of their condition.
Developed and researched at Stanford University, this highly effective program has been shown to improve confidence while reducing hospitalizations, doctor visits, and trips to the emergency department. Diabetes affects millions of people, including friends, family, and community members — and this workshop provides practical strategies in a supportive group setting.
Workshop Highlights
Participants will learn to:
● Understand the basics of diabetes
● Plan healthy meals and read nutrition labels
● Discover fun and easy ways to stay active
● Care for their feet and prevent complications
● Manage blood sugar levels effectively
● Communicate confidently with doctors and loved ones
Take this opportunity to improve your quality of life and gain confidence in managing your diabetes. Invite a friend or family member to join and make the journey together.
