Purpose
The primary aims of this study are to:
- Tailor a diabetes stress management intervention for delivery by community health workers (CHWs) serving an urban Latino population.
-
Investigate the efficacy of the stress management intervention on glycemic control.
Secondary aims of this study are to:
- Investigate the efficacy of the stress management intervention on stress hormones, psychosocial functioning, and stress-glucose reactivity.
Study hypothesis:
A CHW-led group-based diabetes education model enhanced with stress management education will improve glycemic control more than CHW-led group-based diabetes education alone.
