Popis: | Diabetes self-management is key to preventing diabetes complications disproportionately affecting Hispanics. Church appears a promising setting for delivering a diabetes self-management education support (DSMES) program. “Faith-placed” (FP) programing refers to health interventions implemented in the church setting; while “faith-based” (FB) signifies integrating spirituality with health interventions. The Building a Health Temple (BHT) DSMES program integrates spirituality with DSMES to improve diabetic outcomes. This cluster-randomized trial tests the effectiveness of BHT DSMES by adapting an existing DSMES program into faith-based context. A total of 360 participants will be recruited from 18 churches (~20 participants/church). Churches will be randomly assigned to either the FB or FP intervention arm. Intervention activities will be implemented over 14 consecutive weeks. Participants in the FB arm will participate in BHT DSMES including a Health Sermon, the Self-Management Resource Center (SMRC) Diabetes Self-Management Program (DSMP), and a 7-session Healthy Bible Study, delivered by two trained church lay health leaders. Participants in the FP arm will attend the same SMRC DSMP facilitated by outside health professional, followed by a 7-session community health and safety curriculum as a partial attention control intervention. The primary outcome will be a change in Hemoglobin A1c (HbA1c) level. Secondary outcomes include: changes in body mass index, waist circumference, diabetes distress score, diabetes self-care behaviors, eating behavior, and physical activity level. Data will be collected at baseline, 6, 9, and 12 months during the study period. The proposed study will lead to innovative DSMES program delivery through faith settings for Hispanic persons with diabetes. |
