Organized by

The Self-Management Program of Southeastern Ontario is funded by the Ontario Ministry of Health and Long-Term Care to coordinate, promote and facilitate self-management workshops across Southeastern Ontario.

The Self-Management Program of Southeastern Ontario coordinates self-management workshops, providing the opportunity for individuals, caregivers and health care providers to learn about self-management and support for people living with (or at-risk of developing) chronic conditions.

Our program goal is to provide individuals with the knowledge, skills and confidence to self-manage their chronic conditions and to provide health care professionals with the tools and techniques to offer better self-management support. 

The anticipated impact is that individuals will have a stronger ability to self-manage their chronic conditions and live healthier lives, thereby improving health outcomes and reducing long-term health care costs.  This centralized coordination helps promote access to self-management supports, programs and resources throughout the community. 

The Self-Management Program of Southeastern Ontario is housed at the Kingston Community Health Centres.
