Program registration deadline approaches for ‘Taking Control of My Diabetes’

“Taking Control of My Diabetes” – an eight-week program focused on Type 2 diabetes and pre-diabetes offered by the Center for Healthy Living on Purdue’s West Lafayette campus – will begin Tuesday (Sept. 10). Registration is due by Monday (Sept. 9) via the Healthy Boiler Portal. The registration link can be found under the “Engage” tab, “Wellness Events” on the portal’s homepage.

Eligible participants will receive a glucose meter and test strips. See the recent Purdue Today article for details on the program.

Individuals living with Type 1 diabetes are able to meet monthly with a CHL health coach but are not required to participate in the eight-week “Taking Control of My Diabetes” program to take advantage of the test strips and blood sugar meter opportunity. Contact CHL for more information at 765-494-0111. 

Workshops provided by the Center for Healthy Living are free to all benefits-eligible faculty and staff and dependents covered on a Purdue medical plan.
