Brief Summary
The number of youth with type 2 diabetes is predicted to quadruple by 2050, with a disproportionate increase among minority youth. The research proposed in this Career Development Award will use community-based participatory research methodology as well as novel strategies (peer education and mobile health technologies) to design, implement and evaluate a diabetes prevention intervention for at-risk ethnic minority youth in an urban community with high disease burden.

TEEN HEED
EXPERIMENTALAdolescent pre-diabetics will receive 8-12 weekly peer-led diabetes prevention educational workshops in community sites. The in-person group workshops will be supplemented by support through mobile health technologies such as text messaging and social media.
Wait List Control
