The My Health for Life initiative has been culturally tailored and is delivered in-language by a qualified Health Coach to support CALD communities to make healthier lifestyle choices. Over the course of 6 sessions – delivered in groups or one-on-one, virtually, or face-to-face – participants learn about current Australian health guidelines, their risk of developing chronic conditions such as type 2 diabetes, heart disease and stroke, and ways to make positive changes in their lives.
This free, healthy lifestyle initiative is proudly funded by the Queensland Government through Health and Wellbeing Queensland. It is led by Diabetes Australia in collaboration with Key Partners – Ethnic Communities Council of Queensland (ECCQ), Stroke Foundation, and Queensland Aboriginal and Islander Health Council (QAIHC).
