YMCA Diabetes Prevention Program
Cleveland County Family YMCA is excited to offer the YMCA Diabetes Prevention Program.
The YMCA’s Diabetes Prevention Program is a 12-month evidence-based program that includes 16 weekly core sessions followed by monthly maintenance sessions. The program is delivered in a classroom setting by trained lifestyle coaches and provides a supportive environment where a small group of individuals work together to learn how healthier eating and increased physical activity can help reduce their risk for developing type 2 diabetes.
Our next class starts Thursday, May 23, 2013 from 5:30 - 6:30 p.m. at the Dover YMCA.
