Habit Building Software Application to Increase Engagement of Vulnerable Populations in the National Diabetes Prevention Program (NDPP) Lifestyle Change Program (LCP)

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn whether a companion software application can improve program engagement in the National Diabetes Prevention Program in adults with prediabetes. The main question[s] it aims to answer [is/are]:

Do participants using the software application (the intervention group) have better engagement with the Diabetes Prevention Program than those who do not use the companion software application (the control group)? Are participants using the software application (the intervention group) more likely to stay in the Diabetes Prevention Program longer than those who do not use the companion software application (the control group)?

Participants are those who have signed up for their local Diabetes Prevention Program and agree to be in the study.
