The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) has changed the way people approach type 2 diabetes prevention. The DPP shows that people who are at high risk for type 2 diabetes can prevent or delay the disease by losing a modest amount of weight through lifestyle changes (dietary changes and increased physical activity).
A registry of recognized diabetes prevention programs throughout Mississippi is available below. All of these programs have agreed to use a CDC-approved curriculum that meets the duration, intensity, and reporting requirements described in the DPRP standards.
