Summary
This study looks at whether giving low-income people with diabetes or hypertension a monthly grocery card ($80 or $120) helps them control their disease and feel less stressed about food. About 4,450 adults in California are taking part. Researchers will check changes in blood sugar, blood pressure, and food security over time.
