Diabetes Prevention Program

Based in Greenwood, IN, the YMCA's Diabetes Prevention Program is dedicated to empowering individuals at high risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes to take control of their health through sustainable lifestyle changes. Drawing on the evidence-based Landmark Diabetes Prevention Program, our supportive environment includes 16 weekly sessions led by trained lifestyle coaches who guide participants in essential topics such as nutrition, initiating physical activity, managing stress, and maintaining motivation. After completing the core sessions, participants benefit from ongoing monthly meetings for up to a year, providing continuous encouragement and resources to help sustain their progress and foster lasting health improvements.
