The Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program in Portales, NM, offers a supportive and informative experience for anyone newly diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. This free program, available in both English and Spanish, guides participants through a comprehensive 12-month journey focused on diabetes management and education. Enrollees receive six informative e-booklets designed to address their needs post-diagnosis, along with a monthly e-newsletter that features seasonal health tips and local community resources. Participants can further enrich their knowledge by signing up with their phone number to join our monthly Ask the Experts Q&A series, where they can connect directly with American Diabetes Association experts to ask questions and learn about the critical relationship between diabetes and heart health. Together, we empower individuals to effectively manage their condition and thrive in their daily lives.
