Program Design.

Studies show that nearly 60% of Americans live with some form of chronic disease. What’s a chronic disease? Chronic diseases are any physical or mental health condition that lasts more than one year and either limits ability or requires ongoing treatment. Conditions such as high cholesterol and high blood pressure, anxiety and arthritis, heart disease, diabetes and many, many, more constitute a chronic disease.
