Study Summary

This trial will test whether diabetes self-management education and support delivered in faith-based organizations by trained community health workers is effective in improving glycemic control for Marshallese people with type 2 diabetes.

Who is the study for?

This trial is for Marshallese adults with type 2 diabetes who have an HbA1c level of at least 6.5% and a family member to join them in the study. They shouldn't plan to move away, have conditions preventing protocol adherence, severe disabilities, or prior diabetes education within five years.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

The study tests a Family Model Diabetes Self-Management Education program delivered by community health workers in churches. Participants are randomly assigned to start immediately or wait (wait-list control), measuring effects on blood sugar control and other health indicators.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since this intervention involves education and support rather than medication, typical drug side effects aren't expected. However, participants may experience stress or discomfort from lifestyle changes or frequent health monitoring required by the program.
