The YMCA Diabetes Prevention Program in Benton Harbor, MI, empowers individuals at risk for Type 2 diabetes to embark on a transformative journey towards healthier living. With a focus on practical changes, participants are guided to lose 7% of their body weight and increase their physical activity to 150 minutes per week through 25 supportive sessions over the course of a year. Each session is led by a trained Lifestyle Coach who fosters a caring environment where participants can engage with others who share similar health goals. By providing essential skills and ongoing support, our mission is to help you reduce your risk of diabetes and enhance your overall quality of life.
