This study will test whether adding sleep hygiene education and support to diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES) in diverse patients (African American, Hispanic, Pacific Islander, and Caucasian) with type 2 diabetes myelitis (T2DM) from rural UAMS Regional Programs clinics is more effective than DSMES alone. The specific aims for this study are: * Aim 1A (Primary): Determine if this model improves blood glucose levels as measured by the HbA1c test in diverse adults with T2DM. * Aim 1B: Determine the preliminary effectiveness of DSMES+SHES on sleep duration and sleep quality, blood pressure, fasting lipids, body mass index (BMI), self-management behavior, self-efficacy, diabetes-related distress, and diabetes-related quality of life in diverse adults with T2DM. * Aim 2A: Determine the feasibility and acceptability of DSMES+ SHES when implemented with diverse adults with T2DM. * Aim 2B: Determine the feasibility and acceptability of DSMES+ SHES implementation in Regional Programs clinics.

SHES outlines the importance of sleep for people with type 2 diabetes mellitus and provide practical information and guidance about sleep habits. Specifically, the focus will be on: avoiding consumption of caffeine, nicotine, alcohol; avoiding use of light emitting devices before bedtime; avoiding excessive intake of fluids or heavy meals before bedtime; promoting regulation of light, noise, and temperature in the bedroom; timing of and importance of exercise; maintaining consistent sleep and wake times; establishing a pre-bedtime routine; and managing stress.

Change in mean HbA1c (NGSP%) from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
A Siemens analyzer will be utilized to calculate HbA1c (%) for each participant at each time point. Changes in the primary outcome measure will be assessed from baseline to post-intervention.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in sleep duration from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
Self-reported sleep duration (hours slept) will be assessed using valid Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System survey items.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in sleep quality from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
The PROMIS® Short Form v1.0- Sleep Disturbance-4a scale will be used to assess self-reported perceptions of sleep quality, sleep depth, and restoration associated with sleep.This includes perceived difficulties and concerns with getting to sleep or staying asleep, as well as perceptions of the adequacy of and satisfaction with sleep.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in mean blood pressure (systolic & diastolic, mmHg) from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
Blood pressure will be measured with a sphygmomanometer and stethoscope or digital blood pressure device with the participant seated and arm elevated.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in mean body mass index (BMI) from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
BMI will be collected by measuring participant height (without shoes) using a stadiometer, and by measuring participant weight (without shoes) using a calibrated digital scale. Participant weight and height will then be used to compute a continuous measure of BMI.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention

Change in mean total cholesterol (mg/dL) from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
Through finger prick blood collection, point of care tests will be used used to test total cholesterol using a commercial lipid panel kit and Cholestech LDX analyzer.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in mean low-density lipoproteins (LDL) (mg/dL) from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
Through finger prick blood collection, point of care tests will be used used to test LDL using a commercial lipid panel kit and Cholestech LDX analyzer.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in mean high-density lipoproteins (HDL) (mg/dL) from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
Through finger prick blood collection, point of care tests will be used used to test HDL using a commercial lipid panel kit and Cholestech LDX analyzer.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in mean triglycerides (mg/dL) from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
Through finger prick blood collection, point of care tests will be used used to test triglycerides using a commercial lipid panel kit and Cholestech LDX analyzer.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in diabetes self-management behaviors from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
The Summary of Diabetes Self-Care Activities (SDSCA) will be used to measure engagement in self-management activities. The SDSCA consists of 12 items to assess the self-reported frequency of performing diabetes self-care tasks, including testing blood sugar, following healthful eating plans, and exercising regularly.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in diabetes-related self-efficacy from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
The Diabetes Management Self-Efficacy Scale (DMSES) will be used to measure patient's confidence in managing their diabetes. The DMSES consists of 8 items to assess self-reported confidence in managing aspects of their diabetes. Items are scored on a 0-10 point scale, with higher scores indicating higher levels of self-efficacy.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in diabetes-related distress from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
The Problem Areas in Diabetes Scale (PAID)-5 will be used to measure diabetes distress. The PAID-5 consists of 5 items to assess self-reported diabetes-related emotional distress, including feeling scared or depressed. Items are scored on a 0-4 point scale, with higher scores indicating higher levels of distress.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
Change in diabetes-related quality of life from baseline to 12 weeks post-intervention
The DAWN2 Impact of Diabetes Profile (DIDP) will be used to measure the perceived impact of diabetes on patients' quality of life. The DIDP consists of 6 items to assess self-reported impacts on quality of life, including physical health, financial situation, and relationships with others.
Time frame: Baseline and 12 weeks post-intervention
