The Mary & Dick Allen Diabetes Center is hosting virtual support groups for people with type 2 diabetes. Join others living with T2D to receive support and encouragement from your peers. Whether you are still adjusting to your diagnosis or have been managing T2D for many years, you are invited to share your successes and talk through challenges with others who understand what it’s like to live with T2D.

The support group will be held virtually via Zoom. A link will be emailed out to registered participants two days prior to the class.

Class facilitator: Samantha Markovitz, Health and Wellness Coach at the Allen Diabetes Center
