The purpose of this study is to evaluate a multi-level approach to improve diabetes control via access to social service supports and online, culturally-tailored diabetes self-management education and support (DSMES) videos among a community of primarily Chinese and Latino/a immigrants. The study aims to assess patient uptake, provider adoption, and INSPIRE program acceptability, appropriateness, feasibility, fidelity, penetration/reach, and maintenance.
In stage 1, the 8 family health center (FHC) clinics will be randomized 1:1 into Experimental Cohort A, which will receive the Community Health Worker (CHW)-enabled community-clinic linkage model (CCL) or Control Cohort B, with FHCs that will not receive the CHW-enabled CCL. Then, in stage 2, patients in clinics that received the CHW-enabled CCL will be randomized in a 1:1 ratio to Arm A who will receive text-based mhealth diabetes education videos or Arm B who will not receive mhealth.
