The Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program in Bonne Terre, MO, is dedicated to supporting individuals recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes, empowering them with the knowledge and tools needed for effective diabetes management. This inclusive and free program, available in both English and Spanish, spans over 12 months and features six informative e-booklets designed to meet participants at their unique stage after diagnosis. Enrollees benefit from a monthly e-newsletter that offers valuable seasonal tips and access to community events, fostering a sense of connection and support. Those who provide their phone numbers are invited to join the monthly Ask the Experts Q&A series, where they can engage with ADA experts to discuss diabetes and heart health, and receive helpful giveaways to aid their journey. Through this program, we strive to create a constructive and inviting environment for individuals to learn, grow, and thrive with type 2 diabetes.
