Prevent type 2 diabetes with the Diabetes Prevention Program Find education and support across Minnesota for people who have prediabetes or are at high risk for type 2 diabetes. The Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) is a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC)-led, proven lifestyle change program that can help people with prediabetes cut their risk of developing type 2 diabetes in half. A trained lifestyle coach works with participants to teach lifestyle skills needed to make lasting changes — like eating healthier, adding physical activity and managing stress. The goal of this year-long program is for participants to lose 5 to 7 percent of their body weight and gain 150 minutes of weekly physical activity. Program participants meet weekly for 16 weeks over an initial six-month period, and monthly over the next six months. The DPP curriculum is based on findings from the Diabetes Prevention Program research study, a randomized controlled trial conducted by the National Institutes of Health. This study showed that people with prediabetes who lost a modest amount of weight — 5 to 7 percent, or about 15 to 20 pounds for most people — reduced their risk of developing type 2 diabetes by 58 percent over a three year period. Diabetes Prevention Program The DPP is offered across Minnesota in health care, community and worksite settings. Find a nearby program by following one of these links below.

Diabetes: Part Of The Wisconsin Chronic Disease Prevention Program
Diabetes in Wisconsin Diabetes is a costly, complex, and devastating chronic illness that poses a major public health problem. Approximately 356,000 adults and 6,500 children and adolescents in Wisconsin have been diagnosed with diabetes.1,2,3 It is estimated that an additional 138,000 have diabetes but are undiagnosed.4 Diabetes is the seventh leading cause of death in Wisconsin, incurring an estimated $3.9 billion annually in health care and lost productivity costs.5 Each year, more than 1,300 Wisconsin residents die from diabetes and many more suffer disabling complications such as heart disease, kidney disease, blindness, and amputations.6 This burden is higher among minority populations. Much of the health and economic burden of diabetes can be averted through known prevention measures. Nearly 4 out of 10 Wisconsin adults has prediabetes. Modest behavior changes can prevent or delay the onset of type 2 diabetes in people who have prediabetes. 2 out of 5 Wisconsin adults are expected to develop type 2 diabetes in their lifetime. Diabetes causes high blood glucose (blood sugar) levels that can lead to serious health problems. Diabetes and the Wisconsin Chronic Disease Prevention Program The Wisconsin Chronic Disease Prevention Program (CDPP) works with health systems, health care providers, insurers, and professional organizations across the state to support a healthier Wisconsin by improving the prevention and management of diabetes. With funding from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), the CDPP manages several projects to enhance coordinated systems of care, promote clinical best practices, and support patient self-care and health literacy. Increasing use of diabetes self-management programs and chronic disease self-management programs in communit Continue reading >>

Illinois Diabetes Prevention and Control Program Home Topics & Services Diseases and Conditions Diabetes Illinois Diabetes Prevention and Control Program Illinois Diabetes Prevention and Control Program Diabetes is serious chronic disease that poses a major public health problem. More than 827,000 adults in Illinois have been diagnosed with diabetes, and each year more than 2,700 residents die from the disease. Many more suffer from complications such as heart disease, vision loss, and amputations. The burden of diabetes is even higher among minority populations, such as African Americans, Hispanics/Latinos, American Indians, Asian Americans, and Pacific Islanders. With the return of the diabetes program to the Illinois Department of Public Health through Governor Quinns Executive Order, the Department is working to improve the health of people at risk for, or affected by, diabetes. Please explore the numerous professional and general diabetes resources on this website to learn more about diabetes and this program; they are located in the right-hand column under the sections titled Resources and Publications. As of July 1, 2010, the Diabetes Prevention and Control Program, which had been part of the Illinois Department of Human Services (DHS) since 1997, was transferred to the Illinois Department of Public Health. Governor Pat Quinn signed Executive Order 6 (2010) on April 1 to set this reorganization in motion. The diabetes program had moved from the Illinois Department of Public Health in 1997 as part of the restructuring of the states human services delivery system that created DHS. With that change, Illinois became the only state in the country in which the diabetes program was not part of the state health department. By returning the program to public health, it b Continue reading >>

State Diabetes Control Programs
State Diabetes Control Programs increase access to diabetes care and treatment and promote public awareness about diabetes. We are encouraging state legislators to increase funding for these programs and to expand existing prevention efforts. The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) fund Diabetes Control Programs in every state and the District of Columbia. These public health programs monitor diabetes prevalence, implement and evaluate diabetes interventions, work to increase access to quality diabetes care and treatment and promote public awareness about diabetes. The backbone of the CDC Program is support for state and territorial Diabetes Prevention and Control Programs that work to prevent diabetes and its complications. These programs identify high-risk populations, improve the quality of diabetes care, ensure access to diabetes care by improving outreach and expanding services, and involve communities in improving diabetes care. The CDC and state programs work with partners across healthcare to help improve care for people with diabetes - improving quality of life and saving healthcare dollars. Given the magnitude of the current diabetes epidemic and the relative lack of funding dedicated to it, states are not in the position to focus on the primary prevention of diabetes at this time. The Division of Diabetes Translation's (DDT) goal is to reduce the burden of diabetes in the United States. The division works to achieve this goal by combining support for public health-oriented diabetes prevention and control programs (DPCPs) and translating diabetes research findings into widespread clinical and public health practice. Develop state-based diabetes prevention and control programs The division provides funding for state-based DPCPs in all 50 states an Continue reading >>

Did you know that an estimated 1,048,918 Ohio adults have been diagnosed with diabetes? Diabetes is one of the most prevalent and serious chronic diseases in the United States. In 2014, about 29.1 million people or 9.3% of the population have diabetes, 8.1 million of whom do not know that they have the disease. (Source: CDC ). In 2014, approximately 70,000 new cases of diabetes were diagnosed in adults ages 18 76 years old, and that number is set to grow as the aging U.S. population rises along with the increasing prevalence of overweight or obese Americans (Source: CDC Diabetes Atlas ). Over the past 20 years, from 1994 through 2014, the number of adults diagnosed with diabetes in Ohio has risen from approximately 4.8% to 10.3%. In addition, it is estimated that another 6.1% of Ohio adults have been diagnosed with prediabetes, increasing their risk of progressing to Type 2 diabetes later in life. (Source: CDC Diabetes Atlas ). Diabetes was also the primary cause of death for 3,600 Ohioans and was a contributing cause of many more deaths (Source: 2015 Ohio Chronic Disease Report ). As the Ohio Department of Health We Promote: Enhanced awareness of prediabetes and diabetes ,including its complications, to all Ohioans Increased management of diabetes for those who have been diagnosed with diabetes Access to quality care for those disproportionately affected populations with prediabetes and diabetes Improved care of services for underserved populations with prediabetes and diabetes in Ohio Quality prediabetes and diabetes education, promoting wellness, physical activity, a healthy weight, blood pressure control, and smoking cessation Partnerships and community involvement to strive towards decreasing the prevalence of diabetes in Ohio Continue reading >>
