Living Well With Chronic Disease 

Living Well is a self-management workshop facilitated by trained leaders that helps you take control of your health by using small steps toward positive changes and healthier living. Workshops are interactive and not just lectures!  Groups of 8-15 individuals take part in the workshops to share their experiences and provide support to each other.

You WILL benefit from Living Well if you have or are caring for someone with a chronic condition.  

People who attend the workshops have shown:

  • More energy and less fatigue
  • Improved overall health
  • Health care cost savings
  • Slower progression of chronic conditions

Living Well With Chronic Disease Class will be starting in June!  Join us on Thursday, June 15th at 12:30pm at Four Corners Health Department for “Session 0,” which is a chance to learn more about the program.  Actual class sessions are tentatively set for the following 6 Thursdays, beginning on June 22nd at 1:30pm.  Click here, or Contact us to learn more!
