On Friday, October 18, Governor Lou Leon Guerrero took an important step in promoting health and well-being by signing a proclamation designating November as Diabetes Awareness Month.

This proclamation serves as a reminder of the significance of health education and preventive care in managing diabetes, a condition that affects many individuals and families in Guam. By raising awareness, we can all foster a deeper understanding of diabetes, its impacts, and the essential steps that can be taken to prevent and manage it effectively.
