For people with ongoing health conditions and those who care for them

Join a 2 and ½-hour Living Well Workshop, held each week for six weeks.  Classes are fun and interactive. Participants share their successes and build a common source of support. The workshop builds confidence around managing health, staying active and enjoying life.

Learn from trained volunteer leaders with health conditions themselves about how to:

  • manage symptoms and medication
  • work with your health care team
  • set weekly goals
  • problem-solve effectively
  • improve communication
  • relax and handle difficult emotions
  • eat well and exercise safely

Set your own goals and make a step-by-step plan to improve your health—and your life.  Each participant in the workshop receives a copy of the companion book, Living a Healthy Life With Chronic Conditions.

“In just a few weeks, I got back to feeling better - and back to being the kind of person I like to be.”
