Publication Description

One in 10 people in the US lives with diabetes, the seventh leading cause of premature death in the country. It’s estimated that nearly 100 million American adults have prediabetes – nearly one in three people.

Addressing this public health crisis is the driving force behind an online toolkit developed by a team of Extension professionals across the country. They aim to help Extension professionals launch a Centers for Disease Control and Prevention-recognized Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) easily and quickly.
