AUGUSTA — Spectrum Generations in partnership with Healthy Living for ME will offer a free workshop to help individuals with diabetes or prediabetes, and their caregivers or family members.
Living Well with Diabetes will be offered Jan. 19 through Feb. 23. Workshops participants will meet weekly from 3 to 5 p.m. on Zoom, a video conferencing platform, according to a news release Jen Paquet, Healthy Living coordinator, Central Maine Area Agency on Aging.
Topics such as testing your blood sugar, menu planning, stress management, increasing activity level, treating low blood sugar, caring for your feet, and healthy eating will be discussed.
Slow Internet, no computer? No problem. The agency has officially launched its free tablet lending program just in time for this workshop. This series is free and open to the public, though registration is required.

We believe it's important to offer commenting on certain stories as a benefit to our readers. At its best, our comments sections can be a productive platform for readers to engage with our journalism, offer thoughts on coverage and issues, and drive conversation in a respectful, solutions-based way. It's a form of open discourse that can be useful to our community, public officials, journalists and others.
We do not enable comments on everything — exceptions include most crime stories, and coverage involving personal tragedy or sensitive issues that invite personal attacks instead of thoughtful discussion.
