NCT00964587

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine if patient education and problem-solving training, delivered in self-study, group, and individual intervention modalities, will produce substantial improvements in CVD risk profile via improved self management in urban African Americans with type 2 diabetes and a high CVD risk profile.
