Education
HDC clients learn how to manage diet, exercise and medication to stay healthy and prevent complications such as heart attacks, strokes, blindness, kidney failure, and amputations.
Long-term national research by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has demonstrated that diabetes education can reduce complications by 50% and hospitalizations by 72%!
Each year, HDC educates approximately 2,800 local people from all walks of life. HDC programs are recognized by the American Diabetes Association.
