The Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program in Sturgis, SD, is dedicated to supporting individuals recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes with a comprehensive, free educational experience. Over the span of 12 months, participants can engage with a range of resources, including six informative e-booklets designed to address specific aspects of diabetes management, and a monthly e-newsletter filled with seasonal tips in both English and Spanish. Additionally, we keep individuals connected to their community through information on local events that promote well-being. For those who provide their phone number, we offer exclusive access to our monthly 'Ask the Experts' Q&A series, where participants can engage directly with ADA experts to ask questions, learn about the crucial connection between diabetes and heart health, and enjoy giveaways that foster healthy living. Our mission is to empower individuals on their journey to better health and management of diabetes, ensuring they have the tools and knowledge needed to thrive every day.
