Plain-language summary

The goal of this single arm pre-test post-test design study is to test the impact of providing patients with information about community-based resources to address health-related social needs and cardiometabolic health in rural African American patients. The main question it aims to answer is: • What is the effectiveness of community resource information on patient self-efficacy to use community resources? Participants will be given: * A personalized "HealtheRx" resource with information about community resources related to food, housing, utility support, transportation, and crisis support. The HealtheRx is personalized for patients based on their age and zip code. * Access to a community resource navigator for support with using the HealtheRx upon request * 2 text messages with reminders about the HealtheRx and access to the community resource navigator
