Due to the sustained success of the Diabetes Prevention Program at the Morongo Basin Healthcare District, the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, or CDC, has awarded full recognition to the healthcare district for its prevention program. This recognition is reserved for programs that have effectively delivered a quality, evidence-based program that meets all of the CDC standards for recognition.
The continued success of this lifestyle change program makes an invaluable contribution to the prevention of type 2 diabetes and is a year-long program that is open to the public. Participants must qualify as high-risk for type 2 diabetes. You can visit the healthcare district’s website at MBHDistrict.org for more information on the program and to take the type 2 diabetes risk assessment.
