MU Extension in Cooper County would like to let you know about an upcoming FREE virtual diabetes program being offered.

 
 
 

University of Missouri Extension is partnering with the Central Missouri Regional Arthritis Center to offer a free diabetes self-management program, "Living a Healthy Life with Diabetes," beginning August 19.

 The six-week program series is scheduled virtually via Zoom on Wednesdays, August 19, 26, September 2, 9, 16 and 23, 10:00 a.m. – 11:30 a.m.

 The weekly sessions are for individuals with type 2 diabetes or pre-diabetes and their family and caregivers. Participants learn strategies for managing diabetes to help improve blood sugar levels and decrease the risk of long-term complications.

 Topics include meal planning, physical activity, self-care routines, relaxation, handling difficult emotions, problem-solving and medications.

 There is no charge to attend due to grant funding through the Central Missouri Regional Arthritis Center.  Participants receive the book, Living a Healthy Life with Chronic Conditions, and a relaxation CD.
