These workshops, entitled “Chronic Health Issues Learning & Support” are conducted by the Niagara County Department of Health, and take place over a period of six weeks. They are offered at no cost to participants.
The purpose of the workshops is to provide simple steps to help people manage signs and symptoms of their diseases, to promote active and fulfilling lifestyles, and to feel better. Caregivers are also encouraged to attend to be able to learn, share, and support each other.
The Niagara County Department of Health is offering these sessions to provide learning and a support group for those who live with chronic health issues and to partners and caregivers of people who live with chronic health issues.
Attendees will learn how to manage health and support well-being in a caring environment, and will be able to connect to local services. Light refreshments will also be available.
