Expanding Diabetes Self-Management Education to Address Health-Related Social Needs: A Qualitative Feasibility Study
Diabetes self-management education (DSME) programs are evidence-based interventions that improve glycemic control and self-care behaviors, yet their effectiveness may be limited by unaddressed health-related social needs (HRSN) (e.g., food insecurity, housing or utility instability, transportation barriers). This qualitative multiple case study examined the feasibility of integrating HRSN assessments into DSME delivery within three community-base…
Inequities in Community-Engaged Autism Research: Community Member Perspectives

Barriers to full community engagement have left under-engaged members of the autism community feeling isolated, frustrated, distrustful, and less informed about opportunities for research participation. Objectives: This study aimed to identify gaps in community-engaged research (CEnR) approaches in autism research by examining autism stakeho…

Social Needs and Type 2 Diabetes in Latinos: An Integrative Review
Type 2 diabetes (T2D) disparities in Latinos in the United States continue to rise despite ongoing efforts to advance health equity. Major drivers of T2D disparities are shaped by the social determinants of health which create unmet social needs such as unstable housing, unreliable transportation, food insecurity, financial need, and insufficient childcare. Latino communities are disproportionately affected by many social determinants of health a…
Expressed and unexpressed social needs in low‐income adults in the U.S
Many healthcare organisations are now routinely screening patients for social needs such as food and housing. It is largely unknown whether the needs they identify would have been expressed by the patient in the absence of screening. To better understand expressed and unexpressed social needs, we administered a social needs screener to 1,397 low-income adults who called a 2-1-1 helpline in Missouri seeking assistance with social needs between Jun…
Health Profile and Health Care Access of Mexican Migration Flows Traversing the Northern Border of Mexico

We examine health outcomes and health care access of Mexican migrants traversing the Mexican border region to gain a better understanding of migrant health needs as they transition between migration phases. METHODS: We used data from a 2013 probability survey of migrants from Northbound and Southb…
