How to apply for Diabetes Self-Management Program (DSMP) — Franklin County
Kerr-Tar Area Agency on Aging (Kerr-Tar Regional Council of Governments)
Who it's for
A workshop for people with diabetes on managing the condition day to day. It covers the problems that come with a long-term illness — pain, tiredness, low mood and medication complications — helps you name what is getting in the way, and builds an action plan aimed at better health and fewer symptoms.
Classes run on a schedule and in a place the agency sets, and they fill up — contact the Kerr-Tar Area Agency on Aging to find the next one near you. The page publishes no fee and no income test; these are Older Americans Act health-promotion programmes, normally free to the participant, but confirm when you register.
People who qualify for one senior program often qualify for others. See everything you may qualify for — free, no SSN, about five minutes.
