Healthy lifestyle workshops for people with chronic conditions and those that care for them:
During a 6-week workshop, you will learn real-life skills for living a full, healthy life with a chronic condition. This course is recommended for people with all different chronic conditions and their family or friends. Chronic conditions include diabetes, asthma, depression, anxiety, heart disease, and other ongoing health concerns.
Classes are fun and interactive. Participants share their successes and build a common source of support. The workshop builds confidence around managing health, staying active, and enjoying life. Participants can anticipate door prizes and fun activities that will encourage motivation and renewed energy.
Class leaders are trained in the evidence-based Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP) method developed by Stanford University.
