Diabetes Education Program

The mission of TAIBU’s Diabetes Education Program is to improve the quality of life for people affected by Type 2 Diabetes by providing a culturally and linguistically appropriate service and high standard of diabetes care and education that promotes self management.
We offer a comprehensive Diabetes Education Program to provide practical information on diabetes through our multi-disciplinary team including a Registered Dietitian, a Registered Nurse and a Social Worker.

TAIBU's goals for this program are:

• To reach as many community members who are at risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes, to increase their knowledge of the seriousness of diabetes, its risk and the effective strategies to prevent Diabetes and its complications
• To provide personal care that promotes healthy living with a highly supportive network to help maintain positive changes in lifestyles
• To build effective partnerships with other agencies as well as network and share best practice models as they relate to racialized and marginalized communities
• To refer patients, families, health care workers, students and community groups to appropriate diabetes resources
