The objective of this protocol is to evaluate the efficacy and cost-effectiveness of 8 sessions of in-home, telephone-delivered, culturally-modified, manualized diabetes-modified, behavioral activation treatment (Home DM-BAT) delivered by trained diabetes nurse educators among low income, ethnic minority seniors with poorly controlled T2DM. The aims of this randomized controlled efficacy trial are: Aim: To test the efficacy of Home DM-BAT on glycemic control (hemoglobin A1c). Hypothesis: Low income, minority seniors with poorly controlled T2DM randomized to Home DM-BAT will have significantly greater improvements in glycemic control (hemoglobin A1c) at 12 months of follow-up compared to the control group (in-home, telephone-delivered supportive therapy - ST).
