The Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program in Paola, KS is dedicated to supporting individuals newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes through a comprehensive, free learning experience available in both English and Spanish. Over a supportive 12-month period, participants receive six informative e-booklets tailored to their needs, along with a monthly e-newsletter featuring seasonal tips, resources, and details about local community events. Those who share their phone numbers are invited to join our monthly Ask the Experts Q&A series, where they can connect directly with diabetes specialists from the American Diabetes Association, gain insights into the relationship between diabetes and heart health, and win helpful giveaways designed to empower their diabetes management journey. Our mission is to equip each participant with the knowledge and tools necessary to thrive with diabetes in a welcoming and informative environment.
