In the YMCA's Diabetes Prevention Program a trained lifestyle coach will introduce topics in a supportive, small group environment and encourage participants as they explore how healthy eating, physical activity and behavior changes can benefit their health.

How it works: The 12-month group-based program consists of 16 one-hour, weekly sessions, followed by bi-monthly sessions led by a trained lifestyle coach who facilitates a small group of people with similar goals.

Discuss topics such as healthy eating, increasing physical activity, reducing stress, problem solving, and much more.
Stay motivated to maintain progress towards program goals with monthly maintenance sessions.

The newest session of this class starts at the Y, 266 College St., Burlington, on Monday, September 21st. The class will take place Mondays from 12 - 1 pm.
