Summary

The proposed study aims to fill the gap by adapting an evidence-based intervention and conducting a pilot trial to determine the new program's estimated effect sizes on occupational resilience, A1c, and diabetes-related quality of life. Developing and adapting Lifestyle Redesign (LR) for Marshallese diabetes management is significant because it would reduce health disparities in a community that is disproportionately affected by the disease, and a large number of Marshallese (currently approximately 15,000) have resided in the northwest Arkansas region since the 1980s.

Detailed description

To pilot-test AHD Program, a lifestyle change intervention for diabetes management, and obtain estimates of effect sizes on occupational resilience, A1C, and diabetes-related quality of life. It is hypothesized that occupational resilience, diabetes-related quality of life, and A1C will be improved by the end of the program.
