Good news! There is a lot you can do to prevent diabetes and the best time to start is now.

Join us August 6 to kick off a nationally recognized Diabetes Prevention Program offered ONLINE by Community Health Services of Lamoille Valley.

Classes are from 5:30 -6:30 p.m. and are absolutely free! Participants meet virtually once a week for 16 weeks, followed by every other week, and then monthly for a total of 25 sessions.

To register or to learn more about the program, please call Hannah Ancel or Elise McKenna at 802-888-6042.

"Taking this class worked really well for me – it got me into healthy habits, I felt better after the class, met new people, and at my last checkup with my doctor, my numbers were good. I would take it again, but I don't have to!" —Past participant
