DiabetesSisters Virtual Meetup (Shelby)

Join us at this DiabetesSisters Meetup, where we’ll explore the essential topic of Diabetes Self-Advocacy. In this empowering session, we will discuss how taking an active role in your diabetes care can enhance your health and well-being.

What You’ll Learn:

• The importance of educating yourself about diabetes to make informed decisions.
• How to effectively communicate with your healthcare team and participate in shared decision-making.
• Practical strategies for advocating for necessary tests, your rights at work and while traveling, and working with insurance companies to get the coverage you need.
• How to take actionable steps toward becoming a strong self-advocate.

Whether you’re newly diagnosed or have been living with diabetes for years, self-advocacy is key to successfully managing your condition. This Meetup provides a supportive space to share experiences, learn from others, and take charge of your diabetes care.
