November is Diabetes Awareness Month, and November 14 marks World Diabetes Day—a time to raise awareness, share support, and promote healthy living for those impacted by diabetes.

Diabetes affects millions across the country, but small steps can make a big difference in prevention and management: eating balanced meals, staying active, and keeping up with regular health checkups.

This month, take time to learn the signs, support loved ones managing diabetes, and commit to healthy habits that protect your wellbeing. Together, we can make awareness action.

Resources are available locally through YMCA of Morgan County. To learn more about their Diabetes Prevention Program contact them directly at: (765) 342-6688.
