Summary

The goal of the proposed research is to identify effective patient-centered strategies to prevent diabetes in high-risk populations in real world settings. The investigators will accomplish this by conducting a randomized controlled trial comparing an enhanced Diabetes Prevention Program addressing psychosocial stressors to a standard version in a high-risk population of urban American Indian and Alaska Native people within a primary care setting.

Conditions

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

Standard DPP

The Standard Diabetes Prevention Program (DPP) delivered by the San Jose State Timpany Center is the Group Lifestyle Balance™ DPP, which has previously been tailored for urban American Indians and Alaska Natives by the Indian Health Service. Standard DPP components consist of 16 group classes, 4 visits with a lifestyle coach and access to a therapeutic swimming pool and gym.

BEHAVIORAL

Enhanced DPP

Enhanced DPP components consist of access to a mental health counselor, active referrals to mental health services, and traditional healing workshops such as the use of talking circles, a modified photo voice and digital storytelling to address specific psychosocial issues that are a result of historical trauma, stress, and grief.
