American Diabetes Association Online Community

The American Diabetes Association has created an online community for everyone affected by diabetes. Join the discussion, and find support now!

Adult Support Group

Every first Thursday of the Month from 1:00pm – 2:15pm.
Group sessions are held at American Diabetes Association unless otherwise specified.
Room 605

The Adult Support Group was created to insure that people with diabetes are kept up to date with the best education and information, the Association provides monthly Adult Support Group workshops. These programs are designed to bring information and skills directly to the patient in their own “community” to assist them with daily management of their diabetes and/or to prevent diabetes. We welcome anyone and everyone to attend—bring a family and/or a friend.

For more information, view the Adult Support Group Flyer or contact Aritta Lane with any questions or concerns at 947-5979 or via email at alane@diabetes.org.

Living with Type 2 Diabetes

“You have diabetes” is a statement that 1.9 million Americans will be stunned by this year alone. In Hawaii 113,000 people have diabetes; of which 28,000 remain undiagnosed. 20,000 Native Hawaiians have diabetes in the State of Hawaii. The Association is committed to providing the necessary information, tools, and other resources to all affected by diabetes to raise awareness and improve outcomes of those affected by diabetes or prediabetes.

The purpose of the Living With Type 2 Diabetes program is to provide diabetes educational materials, tools, support services, and other resources to those affected by diabetes so they can make healthier lifestyle choices, and experience reduced onset of diabetes and its complications.
