Support-Group

At Ruby A. Neeson Diabetes Awareness Foundation, our goal is to provide a source of support to those affected by diabetes. Since 2012, we continue to offer education and group fellowship through our Diabetes Support Group, C.U.B.S.

C.U.B.S is an innovative approach supporting those affected by diabetes by helping them to better understand the emotional, social, and viable aspects of diabetes. We understand and are dedicated to help support you on this journey.

Be encouraged by the success of others, and experience greater success! We encourage those recently diagnosed, living or at-risk to get involved by joining our unique assemblies.

Out of a multitude of concern and caution regarding the global COVID-19 pandemic, our in-person diabetes support groups were placed on hold because of recommended social-distancing. This propelled us to pivot and engage more people online. We are excited to announce our in-person diabetes support group meetings have recommenced, yet our virtual support forums will also continue in 2022!

We are committed to adapting our group assemblies to meet the emerging needs of the community.

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, people diagnosed with diabetes may be at a higher risk of experiencing complications and getting very sick from COVID-19. We are here to help. Our hybrid sessions offer the following:

· Online & In-person Fellowship

· Diabetes Health Education

· Emotional Support and Resources

· Community Resources

· Encouragement

· Guest Speakers....and much more!

All are welcomed. We will embrace you with warmth, smiles, attentive listening ears and well wishes.

In-person meeting are held in the following Georgia counties: DeKalb, Gwinnett, Fulton, Fayette, Cobb, Clayton, Whitfield, Walton and Lowndes. Registration for all forums are available on Eventbrite. Register here.
