NCT ID NCT06607341
First seen Jun 25, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026 · Updated 1 time
Summary
This study tests a community-based program to help Black and Latino adults with diabetes, prediabetes, high blood pressure, or obesity. Participants receive lifestyle coaching, help connecting to health and social services, and digital skills training. The goal is to see if this support improves how people use health services and feel about their care.
What this could mean
Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only, not medical advice or a prediction.
- Active substance
- Multi-level community-digital health promotion intervention (behavioral)
- What this could lead to
- If successful, this program could offer a practical, community-based model to help people better manage chronic conditions like diabetes and high blood pressure.
- What could go wrong
- This is a behavioral study, not a drug trial, so results depend on participant engagement and may not apply broadly. It is also limited to specific geographic areas and populations.
