Located in Clinton, MD, Diabetes Management and Diabetes Prevention Basics is dedicated to improving health outcomes in the African American and Latinx communities through Holy Cross Health's Equitable Wellness Initiative. Our supportive, free programs consist of a three-class series focused on empowering participants with essential knowledge about managing diabetes and preventing its onset. In these interactive sessions, attendees learn to monitor blood sugar levels, interpret readings, plan nutritious meals, and increase physical activity. Additionally, the Diabetes Prevention Basics course goes further to equip individuals with practical strategies for making healthy lifestyle changes. Participants discover the link between blood sugar and diabetes, while gaining insights on stress management and smoking cessation. We also provide health and nutrition education, ensuring individuals are informed about disease management.
