The '''National Diabetes Prevention Program''' (National DPP) is a nationwide initiative led by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) within the Department of Health and Human Services, established to translate the findings of the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) into a scalable public health effort. Launched in 2010, the National DPP promotes a year-long lifestyle change program—focused on 5-7% weight loss and 150 minutes of weekly physical activity—to prevent or delay type 2 diabetes in adults with prediabetes, leveraging a growing network of over 1,800 recognized organizations to reach millions at risk across diverse communities. | The '''National Diabetes Prevention Program''' (National DPP) is a nationwide initiative led by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) within the Department of Health and Human Services, established to translate the findings of the Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) into a scalable public health effort.
