TKK Community Health invites community members to join our Diabetes Health Session Series, offered in response to community interest and requests for more diabetes education and support.

Whether you are living with diabetes, pre-diabetic, or supporting a loved one, these sessions will provide practical information and tools to help you better understand diabetes and support your overall health and wellness.

Topics throughout the series include how diabetes affects the body, nutrition, medications, physical activity, and self-management strategies.
