Those at risk of developing diabetes do not have to tackle it alone thanks to a program offered by the Door County YMCA beginning next week. The Diabetes Prevention Program is for those trying to get a firmer grasp on their overall health and wellness. Attendees learn about nutrition and developing behavioral changes over the course of the year. The class meets once a week to start the year, before transitioning to twice a month, and then monthly sessions. Tonya Felhofer from the Door County YMCA says the class really helps with accountability for people seeking a change in their lifestyle.
The class is usually limited to 10 people and begins on January 12th. You can find more information about the Diabetes Prevention Program below.
