The YMCA Diabetes Prevention Program (YDPP) in Grapevine, TX, is dedicated to empowering individuals at high risk for type 2 diabetes to embrace healthier lifestyles and significantly lower their risk of developing the disease. Grounded in the groundbreaking findings of the Diabetes Prevention Program, participants learn that simple yet effective changes—such as healthier eating, increased physical activity, and modest weight loss—can reduce the chance of type 2 diabetes by 58%. YDPP offers comprehensive health and diabetes education, along with exercise and fitness classes, creating a supportive environment for growth and improvement. To be eligible, participants must be 18 years or older, have a BMI of 25 or greater, and be diagnosed with prediabetes through specific blood tests or a history of gestational diabetes.
