The National Science Foundation (NSF) awarded a $303,930 Project Grant under the Social, Behavioral, and Economic Sciences (CFDA 47.075) program to St. Mary's University of San Antonio, Texas. The grant funds a 3-year randomized controlled trial (RCT) to study the impact of enhanced diabetes care on workforce participation and economic outcomes among uninsured residents.

The project partners with community stakeholders to provide additional diabetes education, supplies, and care management to a randomly selected group of uninsured individuals. Key outcomes to be measured include diabetes maintenance, health indicators, healthcare utilization, and workforce participation. Pepperdine University is providing support for the RCT design, implementation, and evaluation as a sub-awardee on the grant. The study aims to inform future public health programs and resource allocation for diabetes care and management, especially in underserved communities.
