Dian True was recently appointed to serve on the Wyoming Lions Club Foundation Board.

“It’s both a privilege and an honor to be chosen to the foundation board,” says True, a regional project manager for the University of Wyoming’s Wyoming Center on Aging (WyCOA), where she provides technical support for diabetes and cardiovascular-related programs. 

True says she looks forward to supporting the Lions Club mission, which is to provide programs and services for the visually impaired, blind and others with special needs in Wyoming, as well as improve access to care by reducing barriers and improving community resources.

True is a registered nurse and certified diabetes care and education specialist. She comes to the board with a longtime working relationship with the Lions Club as a diabetes advocate nationally and across the state. True has worked to support health care teams throughout Wyoming as they provide comprehensive diabetes education and cardiovascular education in Wyoming’s frontier communities.

One of WyCOA’s recent projects used American Heart Association blood pressure and hypertension guidelines to develop blood pressure monitoring kits for the public library systems in Wyoming. The kits, available in both English and Spanish, can be checked out in all 23 counties and are available in 67 libraries across the state.
