People with prediabetes or who are at risk for diabetes can sign up for a 16-week lifestyle change program that supports making changes to reduce their risk for Type 2 diabetes.

Road to Health: Diabetes Prevention Program will take place 6 to 7 p.m. Tuesdays, beginning June 10, at the 78th Street Heritage Farm, 1919 N.E. 78th St. The class fee varies based on insurance coverage, income, use of flexible spending accounts and scholarships.

Session topics range from tipping the calorie balance to healthy eating out and staying motivated. The program includes 16 weekly lifestyle sessions, eight maintenance weigh-ins, problem solving and group support.
