Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP)

The YMCA Diabetes Prevention Program in Harrison Township, MI, is dedicated to empowering individuals at risk for Type 2 diabetes with the knowledge and support needed to embark on a path towards healthier living. By focusing on achievable goals—such as losing 7% of your body weight and increasing physical activity to a minimum of 150 minutes per week—the program fosters sustainable lifestyle changes through education and community support. Participants engage in 25 interactive sessions over the course of a year, guided by trained Lifestyle Coaches who facilitate discussions on nutrition, exercise, and overall wellness, all within a welcoming environment of peers sharing similar goals. Join us to take actionable steps towards a healthier future together.
