ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is testing a program called "Disfrutando" designed to help people prevent and manage type 2 diabetes, a common condition that affects how your body controls blood sugar. The study focuses on not only teaching people about managing their diabetes but also addressing social challenges—like access to healthy food or safe places to exercise—that can make it harder to stay healthy. The goal is to find practical ways to support people living with or at risk for type 2 diabetes.

To take part, individuals need to be between 65 and 74 years old and have a blood test called Hemoglobin A1C at 5.7 or higher, which shows higher blood sugar levels and a risk for diabetes. People with lower blood sugar levels (A1C of 5.6 or less) cannot join. While the study is not recruiting yet, participants can expect to engage with the "Disfrutando" program, which aims to help them improve their health by learning self-care skills and overcoming everyday barriers to healthy living. This trial includes men and women and hopes to make managing diabetes easier and more effective for those involved.
