Start Date

Completion Date
6/30/2028
Summary
The goal of this IDEAL project is to examine the effectiveness and implementation process of the video-based Diabetes Self-Management Education and Support (DSMES) + community health worker (CHW) (hereafter: "IDEAL") intervention compared with a wait-list control group (hereafter: "CONTROL") to improve glycemic control among Chinese immigrants with Type 2 diabetes (T2D) in New York City (NYC). Participants will be randomized with equal allocation to one of the 2 groups. The IDEAL group will receive 1 DSMES brief video/week for 24 weeks delivered via text message. The CHW will assess participants' SDOH barriers to T2D care and link them to available resources in the community. The CONTROL group will continue to receive their usual care and at the end of the study, they will receive DSMES videos.
