Living with a chronic disease can be difficult. Whether you or a loved one lives with the disease, we are here to help. Family Medicine offers free six-week Living Healthy Classes, led by trained facilitators. These classes help you develop action plans and healthy coping skills in a judgement free environment.

Classes are offered throughout the year (usually Spring and Fall); see below for dates, times and classes. To register, call (919)-545-3440, or select here to sign up!

About the Class

The curriculum covers a number of topics including exercise, nutrition, stress management, and important questions to ask your doctor. This spring, we will have a series of classes at the Family Medicine Center and in Orange, Chatham and Alamance Counties. Each participant will receive a free book when they join the class, as well as an incentive for each chapter.
