The Diabetes Prevention Program in Wolcott, CT invites you to join a supportive community focused on healthier living through our comprehensive 12-week Intensive Lifestyle Intervention. Each week, participants engage in a one-hour healthy lifestyle class featuring nutrition education and hands-on cooking demonstrations that utilize fresh produce from our garden, ensuring a practical and culturally relevant approach to healthy eating. Designed specifically for our low-literate, predominantly Latino population, our program emphasizes family involvement, encouraging family members to participate alongside individuals at risk for diabetes. With classes accommodating 15-20 adults each week, we also offer a professional trainer-led exercise class, while providing childcare for infants and toddlers. Together, we empower families to address diabetes and create lasting lifestyle changes through nutrition and physical activity, fostering a healthier future for everyone involved.
