The Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program in Clarksdale, MS, is dedicated to supporting individuals recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. This free program, available in both English and Spanish, offers a comprehensive, gradual learning experience over a 12-month period. Participants receive six informative e-booklets tailored to their immediate needs after diagnosis, as well as a monthly e-newsletter filled with seasonal tips and resources. The program also keeps enrollees connected to local community events. Those who provide their phone number can join our monthly 'Ask the Experts' Q&A sessions, where they can engage directly with American Diabetes Association specialists, explore the connection between diabetes and heart health, and enjoy giveaways that promote a thriving lifestyle with diabetes.
