The Y Diabetes Prevention Program in Mays Landing, NJ, is dedicated to helping individuals at high risk transform their lives and prevent the onset of type 2 diabetes. Rooted in the proven research of the National Institutes of Health and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, our program emphasizes healthy living through nutritious eating, increased physical activity, and manageable weight loss—empowering participants to reduce their risk of developing diabetes by 58%. Led by trained lifestyle coaches, our supportive small group sessions provide a comprehensive learning environment that covers essential topics such as nutrition, physical activity, stress management, and effective motivation strategies over 16 engaging sessions.
