Special Bulletins/Updates For Ross County YMCA

Activate America Diabetes Program

Our second session of Diabetes classes begins Wednesday, September 8th. The program runs for 10 weeks and requires a doctor referral. Those that enroll in the program receive a 6 month YMCA membership, and the opportunity to obtain life-changing tools. Our first session was a huge success! Several individuals made drastic changes to their lives. You can too! For more information on this program, contact Lynn Bunstine at the YMCA.

New Online Tools to Help Americans with Diabetes Take Small Steps (www.smallstep.gov).

With nearly 24 million children and adults in the U.S. living with diabetes, chances are you know someone in your life affected by the disease. It might even be you!

Smallstep.gov is proud to support the American Diabetes Association, the American Association of Diabetes Educators, and the National Council of La Raza to help make diabetes patients more aware of their true risk for certain diabetes-related complications and offer easy ways to manage the disease. Check out DiabetesActNow.org to get entertaining video tips on how to "hatch a heart-healthy omelet," "shift your parking strategy," "be a salt detective," and many more!
