In the YMCA's Diabetes Prevention Program, a trained Lifestyle Coach will introduce topics in a supportive, small group environment and encourage participants as they explore how healthy eating, physical activity and behavior changes can help reduce their risk for diabetes and benefit their overall health.
HOW IT WORKS
The 12-month, 26-session, group-based program consists of one-hour, weekly sessions, followed by monthly sessions led by a trained Lifestyle Coach who facilitates a small group of people with similar goals.
Participants explore how healthy eating, physical activity and behavior changes can help reduce the risk for developing diabetes.
The monthly maintenance sessions help participants stay motivated to maintain progress toward their goals.
