Participation-based support program
CDSMP workshops are highly participatory. Mutual support and success build participants’ confidence in their ability to manage their health and maintain active and fulfilling lives. Each participant is guided to tailor the workshop content to their own needs.
Each workshop includes small groups (8-12) participants connecting via Zoom with 2 trained Leaders, one or both of whom are non-health professionals with a chronic condition themselves, for each virtual workshop.
