Summary: Supports implementation research on coordinated community-clinical linkage strategies to improve diabetes prevention and management, especially in safety-net clinics.
This forecasted opportunity from the CDC supports research to evaluate and improve the implementation of multi-component community-clinical linkage (CCL) approaches for diabetes prevention and management. The focus is on Federally Qualified Health Centers (FQHCs) and other safety-net clinics, where diabetes burden is highest. The program seeks to identify factors that facilitate or hinder the adoption, integration, and sustainability of coordinated CCL strategies, generating practical evidence to inform best practices in real-world clinical settings.
