The Diabetes Prevention Program at the Tampa Metropolitan Area YMCA is dedicated to empowering individuals in Tampa, FL to improve their health and significantly reduce their risk of developing Type 2 Diabetes. Our program consists of 16 engaging weekly sessions facilitated by a certified lifestyle coach, focusing on essential topics such as healthy eating, maintaining an active lifestyle, and effective behavior change. Participants benefit from a supportive, group-based environment where they can learn practical strategies for better nutrition and physical activity, ultimately fostering long-term healthy habits. After the initial 16 weeks, we continue to support participants with bi-weekly and monthly follow-up sessions to ensure lasting success. We warmly welcome everyone to join us at any Tampa YMCA location and invite workplaces to inquire about on-site opportunities. Financial assistance options and flexible payment plans are available for those who qualify, ensuring that our program is accessible to all who need it.
