Diabetes Prevention & Management
In an effort to combat the growing epidemic of diabetes in American Indian and Alaska Native communities, the Samish Indian Nation's Public Health & Diabetes Program provides a variety of services to help delay or prevent a diabetes diagnosis while also reducing the risk of complications. These services are designed to educate tribal members on the risk factors of diabetes while encouraging prevention and management, physical fitness, nutrition, foot care, and vision care.
