The Diabetes Support Group provides education and support for diabetics and their loved ones, as a diabetics' quality of life is dictated by important lifestyle choices, such as healthy eating habits. Knowledge and awareness is also extremely important.

The American Diabetes Association estimates 23.6 million children and adults have diabetes, a disease in which the body does not produce or properly use insulin.

Other local support groups include the Arthritis and Fibromyalgia Support Group, the Breast Cancer
Survivor Support Group (known as Women with Hope), and the Cardiac Support Group.
