Volunteers sought to lead “Living Well with Chronic Conditions”

The Arrowhead Area Agency on Aging is seeking volunteers for the Living Well with Chronic Conditions program. Leaders will facilitate groups of people with chronic conditions. The objective is to help participants build confidence in self-health management and maintain an active lifestyle.

Volunteers will receive 24 hours of training. The next four-day training session will be in Duluth July 15-16 and July 22-23. Registration is required by July 7. For a registration packet contact Debra Laine at 218-529-7534.

Trained leaders will help people find practical ways to deal with chronic conditions such as pain and fatigue, including the need for better nutrition and exercise choices, understanding of new treatment options, and new ways to talk with family and doctors about health.
