When diagnosed with diabetes, it's easy to feel a sense of helplessness.

The Diabetes Empowerment program is recognized by the American Diabetes Association that consists of weekly education sessions that are taught by qualified dietitians, nurses, educators, and other specialized health care providers.

Some of the topics that will be discussed are your personal food plan; blood sugar testing; eating out and holidays; physical activity guidelines and ideas; foot care; and medications. For more information call:
