Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP)

The YMCA Diabetes Prevention Program in Flint, MI empowers individuals at risk for Type 2 diabetes to adopt healthier lifestyles and significantly reduce their risk through manageable, impactful changes. With a focus on achieving a 7% weight loss and gradually increasing physical activity to 150 minutes each week, participants engage in 25 supportive sessions throughout the year. Guided by a trained Lifestyle Coach, individuals work together in a welcoming group setting, learning about nutritious eating, active living, and sustainable behavior changes. Join us on this journey towards a happier, healthier life.
