The Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program in King George, VA, is a welcoming initiative designed for individuals recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. This free program, available in both English and Spanish, spans 12 months and focuses on empowering participants with essential knowledge and manageable strategies for effective diabetes management. Participants receive six informative e-booklets tailored to their journey post-diagnosis, along with a monthly e-newsletter filled with seasonal tips and resources. The program also highlights local community events that foster connection and support. Enrollees who provide their phone number gain exclusive access to the monthly Ask the Experts Q&A series, where they can ask their diabetes-related questions to ADA experts, learn about the association between diabetes and heart health, and participate in engaging discussions either online or via phone. Through these resources, we aim to nurture a supportive environment that equips participants to thrive in their diabetes journey.
