The goal of this study is to evaluate a Community Health Worker (CHW) program for people living with diabetes in rural areas or locations that are remote from the research team.
The study aims to answer the following questions:
- Does the CHW program improve diabetes-related health outcomes, such as blood sugar control?
- What is the sustainability of the program?
