A Diabetes Support Group will meet at the community room of St. Luke’s Miners Campus in Coaldale from 6-7 p.m. April 27, and additional days throughout the year.

The group is for patients and families or friends with diabetes. The group meets to socialize and learn to deal with problems related to diabetes by emphasizing what can be done rather than what can’t be done.

The group may give new hope and insight to those involved.

Attendees will learn about diabetes, its causes and effects, and learn how to increase self-help, problem-solving and prevention measures.

The group provides encouragement regarding mutual problems and accomplishments and helps attendees reduce feelings of isolation.

It is open to all interested people. Registration is not required.

Other meetings will be held April 27, May 25, June 22, July 27, Aug. 24, Sept. 28, Oct. 26 and Nov. 30.
