Brief summary

The aims of the study are to investigate 1. the effects of an intervention vs. control on levels of glycosylated haemoglobin (haemoglobin A1c) in Hispanic participants, older than 18 years, who have elevated hA1c at baseline (\>6.0%). Glycosylated haemoglobin provides an indication of blood sugar levels over the past 3 months. Elevated hA1c levels are seen in diabetics and pre-diabetics. 2. the effects of the intervention vs control on consumption of fresh fruit and vegetables 3. the effects of the intervention vs control on levels of physical activity

Interventions

BEHAVIORALHome Health Party

An education-based lay health educator-led intervention designed to educate Hispanic participants with elevated HA1c levels about diabetes, treatment of diabetes, and diet and lifestyle changes.

Design outcomes

Primary

Measure	Time frame	Description
Effect of the intervention on serum levels of hA1c in diabetics and pre-diabetic participants	Baseline, 3 months	Test the efficacy of an intervention to educate diabetics and pre-diabetics about the management of diabetes as assessed by decreases in hemoglobin A1c;
Effect of the intervention on consumption of fresh fruit and vegetables in diabetics and pre-diabetic participants	Baseline, 3 months	Test the efficacy of an intervention to increase the consumption of healthy diets as assessed by increases in fruit and vegetable consumption
Effect of the intervention on physical activity levels in diabetics and pre-diabetic participants	Baseline, 3 months	Test the efficacy of an intervention to increase physical activity as assessed by increases in the times per week engaged in strenuous or moderate activity.

Secondary

Measure	Time frame
Effect of the intervention on changes in knowledge and attitudes about diabetes	Baseline, 3 months
