Brief Summary

The Michigan Men's Diabetes Project 2 (MenD 2) is an 18-month pilot randomized clinical trial. We are looking to recruit 60 Black men with type 2 diabetes (need to have diagnosis for at least 6 months) that are over the age of 21. Interested participants need to be under the care of a physician for their diabetes, have access to reliable transportation for study activities, and be willing to participate in 4 health assessments where they will get their A1C, blood pressure, height, and weight measured and they will complete a survey. All participants will receive 10 hours of diabetes self-management education with a Certified Diabetes Care and Education Specialist. Participants randomized to the intervention arm will also be offered 6 months of monthly diabetes self-management support (DSMS) sessions with trained Peer Leaders who are also Black men with type 2 diabetes. After the 6 months of support, this group will transition into 6 months of ongoing support where they can continue DSMS and/or other diabetes related initiatives that are important to the group and chosen by the group. Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, DSME and DSMS sessions will likely be held via Zoom, ongoing support sessions have potential to be in person. The 4 health assessments will take place at baseline, 3-months, 9-months, and 15-months.

Inclusion Criteria
  • Black/African American males, age 21 years or older with diagnosis of T2D for six months, transportation to attend program activities, under the care of a physician for diabetes, and willing to attend group delivered sessions.
Exclusion Criteria
  • We considered restricting eligibility to a higher-risk population of participants with A1c ≥ 8%. Preliminary data suggest that over 50% of the proposed study sample will have an A1c ≥ 8%. Focusing on all older Black men with T2D allows us to cast a wide net for secondary prevention and public health impact.
