Our Diabetes Prevention Program is a free year-long program with 26 sessions designed around behavior modification that will give you the tools needed to cope with stressors, choose more nourishing meals, and once and for all get into an exercise routine! This program is great for those looking for ongoing accountability, support, and permanent lifestyle changes.

This program is an evidence-based weight loss program and has an average weight loss participant of 6.14% of their body weight. Those who lose 5-7% of their body weight can reduce the risk for developing type 2 diabetes, reduce the risk for heart disease and some cancers, lower cholesterol, and improve blood glucose.
