The distance-delivered classes will meet Tuesdays at two separate times, from 1:30-4 p.m. or 5:30-8 p.m., through June 9. Topics include controlling blood sugar levels, meal planning, exercise, communicating with health care professionals and other issues faced by individuals managing diabetes.

 

The American Diabetes Association endorses the program. Participants are asked to preregister to get materials and a Zoom link beforehand. To RSVP, contact Leslie Shallcross at 907-242-6138 or laschallcross@alaska.edu or Melissa Clampitt at 907-745-3551 or mrclampitt@alaska.edu.
