Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the effectiveness of a peer mentor model in a mixed race population of poorly controlled diabetic Veterans. Also, the study aims to assess the effects of becoming a mentor on those who originally were mentees. It is expected that participants in the peer mentoring arms (Arm 2 and 3) will have improved glucose control regardless of race or ethnicity at the end of the intervention.
