There are more than 600,000 Arizonans who have Type 2 diabetes, and its estimated that another 2 million adults in Arizona have prediabetes.
Project Power, a partnership between the American Diabetes Association (ADA) and Blue Cross Blue Shield of Arizona, is providing no-cost/free diabetes prevention and self-management for Arizona residents through a lifestyle change program. The program is currently enrolling adults 18+ diagnosed with prediabetes, type 2 diabetes, or who are at high risk for diabetes.
ADA’s Project Power initiative is designed to prevent or manage diabetes, and the complications that can come with it.
This lifestyle change program provides:
- Weekly lessons and discussions offered virtually and in person for 12 months.
- 1:1 coaching in the first three months.
- Small support groups.
- Resources and tools like scales, activity trackers, and a program booklet full of information.
Weekly discussions will cover a lot of bases, including meal planning, physical activity, glucose monitoring and medication, eye health, and so much more.
