The National Diabetes Prevention Program is a program aimed to prevent type 2 diabetes. The NDPP was created in 2010 to address the increasing burden of prediabetes and type 2 diabetes in the United States. This national effort created partnerships between public and private organizations to offer evidence-based, cost-effective interventions that help prevent type 2 diabetes in communities across the United States. The program is a yearlong group intensive that discusses various topics that will help prevent type 2 diabetes. Outcomes expected throughout the duration of the program are weight reduction, increased physical activity levels, and applicable knowledge to make healthier choices.
