Take Control of Your Health: The Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP)
CDSMP was developed by Stanford University’s Patient Education Resource Center and has been successfully implemented throughout the United States and around the world. This interactive program helps people with chronic conditions overcome daily challenges and maintain an active and fulfilling life. Participants attend peer-led workshops held for 2½ hours once a week, for six weeks in community settings.
