Free Dining with Diabetes Workshop in Smith Center

Do you have Diabetes or care for someone who does? Do you want to make the best choices for your health?  We can help.

Nutrition and physical activity are keys to managing type 2 diabetes, but where do you start?  Designed especially for people with type 2 diabetes, the Dining with Diabetes program will help you learn the skills needed to promote good health.

This program includes:

  • Meals with delicious and healthy recipes
  • Cooking demonstrations and meals at each session
  • Motivation and support – connect with others who are living with diabetes
  • Ideas for being more active
  • An understanding of how diabetes affects overall health.

Dining with Diabetes consists of four 2 hour long sessions.  Adults with type 2 diabetes and their family members, caregivers, and support persons are invited to participate.  Individualized meal plans or guidance will not be provided.

This FREE 4 session workshop will be held at the American Lutheran Church, Smith Center KS from 11am-1pm. Event Dates will be March 5, 12, 19, and 26th. Registration is required by March 1st  or until class is full.
