Prediabetes Program

The National Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) is a lifestyle change program to help people learn ways that can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes.

A trained lifestyle coach leads the program to help you change certain aspects of your lifestyle, like eating healthier, reducing stress, and getting more physical activity. The program also includes group support from others who share your goals and struggles.

This lifestyle change program is not a fad diet or an exercise class, and it’s not a quick fix. It’s a year-long program focused on long-term changes and lasting results. The program consists of 22-24 one hour classes throughout the course of a year. Each week you will weigh in and learn something new that you can do to help prevent type 2 diabetes.

A year might sound like a long commitment, but learning new habits, gaining new skills, and building confidence takes time. As you begin to eat better and become more active, you’ll notice changes in how you feel, and maybe even in how you look. To qualify to join the program, you must be overweight, 18 or older, have had a blood test (A1C or glucose) confirming you are in the prediabetic range, or have had gestational diabetes.
