SUMMARY:Diabetes Support Group
DESCRIPTION:Whether you have Type 1 or Type 2 diabetes\, our group offers guidance\, encouragement\, and a sense of belonging to help navigate the challenges of managing blood sugar and overall health. Support is provided from a combination of members’ personal experience with diabetes as well as professional resources.

The Anacortes Lions Club’s Diabetic Support Group is committed to raising awareness about diabetes and its impact while providing a safe\, supportive community for those living with the disease. \nFacilitator: Anacortes Lions Club \nWhen: Third Wednesday of every month at 6pm \nWhere: Fidalgo Room at Island Health \nFor more information contact: Colette Arvidson at 360.391.5880 \n
