Aloha ‘Ohana,

Some of you had questions regarding our upcoming Diabetes Prevention Program. Here is a short FAQ to help give you a few answers.

Diabetes Prevention Program FAQ

Who?
Adults 18+ years old who have prediabetes are found to be at risk for diabetes using a Diabetes Risk Assessment.

What?
A lifestyle change program that is proven to prevent or delay type 2 diabetes. As a part of a group within the community, you will work with a trained lifestyle coach to learn the skills you need to make lasting lifestyle changes.

When?
We are aiming to start a cohort by the end of May 2023. With enough interest, we will be able to start additional cohorts in the future.

Where?
Classes will be held in person within the Ko’olauloa community.

Why?
Over 40% of Hawaii adults have prediabetes, but most do NOT know that they have it. Most cases of type 2 diabetes can be prevented by making small lifestyle changes.

Cost
FREE. You do NOT need to be a Ko’olauloa Health Center patient to participate.
