About this study

In plain language

The overarching goal of this study is to understand facilitators and barriers to self-care, develop and refine a culturally tailored intervention to improve clinical outcomes, quality of life (QOL), and self-care behaviors in African American adults with diabetic kidney disease (DKD) experiencing health-related social needs (HRSN).
