Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program

The Living with Type 2 Diabetes Program in Carbondale, IL, is a supportive initiative designed for individuals recently diagnosed with type 2 diabetes. This free program offers a comprehensive 12-month curriculum that empowers participants to effectively learn about diabetes management at their own pace. Through six informative e-booklets and a monthly e-newsletter available in both English and Spanish, participants receive tailored guidance and seasonal resources to enhance their understanding. Additionally, enrollees can get involved in local community events and participate in our monthly 'Ask the Experts' Q&A series, allowing them to connect directly with ADA experts and address their diabetes-related questions. By fostering a community of learning and support, this program strives to help individuals not only manage their diabetes but thrive in their health journey.
