Chronic Disease Self Management Program

People who have diabetes need skills to manage their diabetes, and to help them stay active.

 The Chronic Disease Self-Management Program is a highly interactive, six-week workshop led by professional trainers in community settings for people with chronic health problems.

The program builds confidence for participants through mutual support and helps people succeed in leading active and fulfilling lives.  It is also offered in Spanish: "Tomando Control de su Salud".

For more information, visit  Stanford University CDSMP . You can also find an organization in your area that offers this program.
