• Description:
  Introduction ; Since the launch of the National Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) in 2010, more than 3,000 organizations have registered with the Centers for Disease and Control and Prevention to deliver the program; today, however, only approximately 2,000 organizations are registered, indicating challenges with sustainability. We used the Program Sustainability Assessment Tool (PSAT) to explore patterns of sustainability capacity among National DPP delivery organizations. ; Methods ; We used data from a cross-sectional online survey conducted in August and September 2021 of staff members (N = 440) at National DPP delivery organizations. We conducted a latent profile analysis to identify latent subpopulations on the basis of respondent PSAT domain scores. Regression analyses were used to estimate associations between derived latent classes, PSAT scores, and respondent characteristics. ; Results ; The 4-class model included 4 groups of capacity for program sustainability, ranging from low to high: low (class 1) with 8.0% of the sample, medium-low (class 2) with 22.0%, medium-high (class 3) with 41.6%, and high (class 4) with 28.4%. Program evaluation (mean score = 5.1 SD = 1.4) and adaptation (mean score = 5.3 SD = 1.3) were the domains with the highest scores, while funding stability (mean score = 4.0 SD = 1.6) and Partnerships (mean score = 4.0 SD = 1.7) had the lowest scores. In our sample of National DPP delivery organizations, most reported relatively high capacity for program sustainability, and key indicators associated with sustainability capacity were virtual delivery, location of delivery, funding sources, and organization type. ; Discussion ; Similar to sustainability capacity findings from other PSAT studies, our study found that funding stability and partnerships are areas to strengthen. This insight is useful in sustainability planning at organizational and national levels across multiple programs.
