The Weld County Diabetes Coalition aims to increase awareness among business leaders, managers of human resources, corporate wellness professionals, and occupational health care providers of how on-site diabetes prevention and management programs can lead to healthier employees. Health Educators are available to share successful diabetes prevention and management worksite workshops. The workshops can be conducted within 1 hour and can be lengthened depending on program goals, content and time restrictions. Workshops can be taught in English or in Spanish. Many workshops are given as “lunch and learn” presentations using the attached “Small Changes Make a Big Difference” curriculum.
