The Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program in Chariton, IA, is a supportive initiative designed for individuals recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. This comprehensive, free program spans 12 months and empowers participants to take charge of their health through gradual learning. Each participant receives six informative e-booklets to help them navigate their new diagnosis, along with a monthly e-newsletter offering tips and resources in both English and Spanish. Additionally, we proudly highlight local community events to enhance participant engagement. Those who provide their phone numbers are invited to join our monthly 'Ask the Experts' Q&A series, giving them an opportunity to pose questions to ADA experts, connect over crucial topics like the link between diabetes and heart health, and enjoy giveaways aimed at promoting a thriving life with diabetes. We are here to guide you on your journey to better health and wellness with care and understanding.
