Claim Listing
In Irving, TX, the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) at the YMCA empowers individuals at high risk for type 2 diabetes to take proactive steps towards healthier living. Through a supportive classroom environment, participants engage in a comprehensive 16-week series of one-hour sessions led by experienced lifestyle coaches who guide them in areas such as nutrition, physical activity, stress management, and motivation. Following these sessions, ongoing monthly meetings provide continued encouragement and accountability for up to a year, reinforcing the commitment to sustainable lifestyle changes. With a focus on achieving a 7 percent weight loss and a goal of increasing physical activity to at least 150 minutes each week, our program is designed to equip each participant with the tools needed for long-term success. The DPP is available at various YMCA locations throughout the Dallas area, with class fees of $429, and scholarships offered to those in need, as well as potential coverage through certain insurance plans.
