Prevent Type 2 Diabetes Prevention Program Informational Session

1 in 3 Americans has pre-diabetes and most do not know it.

YOU MAY HAVE PRE-DIABETES and be at risk for type 2 diabetes if you:

• Are 45 years of age or older
• Are overweight
• Have a family history of type 2 diabetes
• Are physically active fewer than 3 times per week
• Ever had diabetes while pregnant (gestational diabetes) or gave birth to a baby that weighed more than 9 pounds

Join Us for an Informational Session about the Program!

Monday, May 24, 2021
4 p.m. – 5 p.m.
HCMC Private Dining Room

Join us for the PreventT2 Diabetes Prevention Program and learn how to prevent this chronic health condition.  Participants who attend the informational session will receive a free A1c screening at the event.

As part of a PreventT2 group, you will work with a trained lifestyle coach and other participants to learn the skills you need to make lasting changes. You will learn to eat healthy, add physical activity to your life, manage stress, stay motivated, and solve problems that can get in the way of healthy changes.

PreventT2 is a year-long program with weekly meetings for the first 6 months, then meetings once or twice a month for the second 6 months to help you maintain your healthy lifestyle changes. By meeting with others who have pre-diabetes you can celebrate each other’s successes and work together to overcome obstacles
