Get Better Together

Take control of your health with a workshop designed to help Manitobans with ongoing health conditions. Led by others living with health issues who understand the challenges of managing symptoms, medications and health care needs.

Build your confidence to manage better through group support and discussion of topics such as healthy eating, physical activity, communication and pain management.

Feel free to bring a friend, family member or other support to the sessions.
