Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
The purpose of this study is to test the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the iCan Diabetes Self-Management and Prevention Support Group using a single arm clinical trial. The program is composed of six weekly sessions, and it will be implemented with 60 adults (aged 18 years or older) who have been diagnosed with type 2 diabetes or prediabetes and evaluated using mixed methods. A pre-test will be conducted before the program implementation and a post-test will be conducted three months after the pre-test. Focus groups will be conducted shortly after the last session to obtain feedback on the program. Between the last session and the post-test, weekly emails/texts will be sent to keep participants engaged and maximize retention rate.
