This pilot study evaluated the effectiveness of participation in the National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP) for weight reduction in a sample of prediabetic individuals in an urban medically underserved community. The study also evaluated the challenges of implementing the NDPP into such a community, where rates of low education, poverty, medical comorbidities and psychosocial comorbidities are high. The NDPP was developed from a large multicenter study by Knowler and co-authors (2002), Diabetes Prevention Program Research Group, demonstrating a reduced risk for diabetes in prediabetic individuals who participated in an intensive lifestyle intervention program aimed at reducing weight and improving lifestyle habits. There is limited literature describing the use of the NDPP in medically underserved communities.
