DIABETES PREVENTION PROGRAM
This national program developed by the CDC promotes healthy lifestyle changes
to help prevent or delay type 2 diabetes.
This is not a fad diet, an exercise class or a quick fix. It’s a
year-long program focused on long-term changes and lasting results. A
year might sound like a long commitment, but this program uses peer-to-peer
learning and coaching model to promote lifestyle changes that result in
a healthier life and overall wellbeing.
