The YMCA's Diabetes Prevention Program in Franklin, MA, is dedicated to empowering individuals to reduce their risk of developing type 2 diabetes through practical lifestyle changes. In partnership with the YMCA of Central Massachusetts, our program offers a supportive environment led by trained lifestyle coaches who guide participants through a comprehensive curriculum focusing on healthy eating, increased physical activity, and effective behavior modification. With an emphasis on fostering community, participants embark on a transformative journey together, receiving encouragement and friendship as they work towards the goals of losing 7% of their body weight and achieving at least 150 minutes of physical activity per week. This evidence-based program not only provides essential knowledge but also delivers valuable tools for long-term success, significantly decreasing the onset of diabetes by up to 58%. If you're 18 or older, overweight, and have been diagnosed with prediabetes or meet qualifying criteria, we invite you to join us for this impactful program, where health improvement and enhanced energy await.
