Study Summary

The burden of diabetes is higher among African Americans (AAs) in Wisconsin as hospitalization rates for diabetes complications such as stroke and amputations are four times higher than whites and has worsened by 334% since 2011. The most important self-management behavior for improving diabetes outcomes is medication adherence, i.e., taking medicines as recommended by providers. Poor adherence to diabetes medications is common among AAs and contributes to disproportionally worse outcomes. While the reasons for nonadherence are multifactorial, health beliefs, lack of self-efficacy, social support, and limited health literacy, are critical factors for AAs. Due to discrimination experiences and provider distrust, AAs may have health beliefs that do not align with biomedicine. Existing adherence interventions designed for general populations may be ineffective for AAs because they do not adequately address these fundamental factors. The intervention is peer-led, such that AAs who have diabetes and are adherent to their medicines (Peer Ambassadors- (PAs)) are paired with AAs who have diabetes and are nonadherent (Peer Buddies- PBs)).Throughout the 8-week program, PAs actively support and teach PBs about self-advocacy in patient-provider relationships, as well as sharing their experiences managing diabetes, providing social support, enhancing health literacy, patient activation (engagement and empowerment) and self-efficacy. PAs help deliver the intervention via initial face-to-face and phone/app follow-ups with PBs, in addition to structured group education delivered to PBs by a physician, pharmacist, and diabetes educator separately. The investigator's aim is to use a community-engaged design to pilot the intervention, assessing the feasibility of gathering pre/post outcomes including culturally-informed diabetes-health beliefs, self-efficacy, patient activation, medication adherence (using surveys), and A1c, and further refine the intervention via feedback from an ad
