The aim of this intervention was to determine whether diabetes self-management education will help Hispanics/Latinos with type 2 diabetes mellitus change unhealthy behaviors and effectively manage their disease. Healthcare free clinics serve a large majority of Hispanic/Latino patients who could benefit from a formalized diabetes education program.
