Summary: Supports implementation research on coordinated community-clinical linkage strategies to improve diabetes prevention and management in safety-net clinics.
This cooperative agreement opportunity supports research aimed at improving diabetes prevention and management through coordinated combinations of community-clinical linkage (CCL) strategies. The focus is on Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and other safety-net clinics, populations at higher risk for diabetes-related morbidity, mortality, and healthcare costs. The goal is to generate practical evidence about what enables or impedes the adoption, integration, and sustainability of coordinated CCL strategies in real-world primary care settings. Findings are expected to inform best practices for diabetes prevention and management.
