About this study

Official title: Mil Familias- Santa Barbara Operational Pilot

The Mil Familias Program is a 10-year initiative to reduce the burden of cardio-metabolic disease among Latino families in the Central Coast of California. The Mil Familias Program involves enrolling 1000 Latino families with at least one member in the family having type 2 diabetes, measuring the 5 determinants of human health: genetics, biology, behavior, psychology and environment, training Latino community health workers ("Especialistas") , creating a Living Information (bio)Bank and planning culturally-relevant interventions.

Read the detailed description

The Mil Familias Pilot Study aims to develop, operationalize and refine methods to both recruit and collect data from 100 adult participants pertaining to the 5 determinants of human health: genetics, biology, behavior, psychology and environment. Specially-trained Latino and bilingual community health workers known as "Especialistas" will be used to help gather data and to serve as the participants trustworthy health companion. Over 100 variables of information pertaining to the 5 determinants of human health (as listed above) will be gathered and stored to create a Living Information (bio)Bank particular to Latinos. The ultimate goal of this research is to provide the target population with effective, culturally-relevant interventions that are geared toward population specific needs.

Psychological influences will include Patient Health Questionnaire-9, Brief Perceived Ethnic Discrimination Questionnaire Community Version, and Short Form Health Survey.
