Diabetes Prevention
This 12-month program helps overweight adults at risk for type 2 diabetes reduce their risk of developing the disease by taking steps to improve their overall health and well-being. Participants work together in a small group facilitated by a trained Y Lifestyle Coach to achieve the program goals of reducing individual weight by 5-7 percent and building up to 150 minutes of moderate physical activity per week.
A Free Y Membership!
The $600 program fee includes a free Y membership! Waiting lists are forming for new cohorts starting in Fall 2024 and Winter 2025. Classes are offered in English, Spanish, and Portuguese.
