Health Disparities-Related Abstracts Recognized for Excellence
The American Diabetes Association's (ADA's) National Health
Disparities Committee recently recognized 10 abstracts
accepted for the 82nd Scientific Sessions that highlighted
significant research promoting better understanding of
factors that contribute to health disparities/inequities or
describing innovative initiatives to address such factors.
" The National Health Disparities Committee is proud to
showcase these 10 abstracts from researchers working
to make a difference in the lives of people with diabetes, "
committee chair Dr. Enrique Caballero said. " The annual
selection of abstracts highlighting strategies to target inequities
in diabetes care provides our committee and the ADA as a
whole with an opportunity to emphasize the importance of
providing optimal care to all people living with diabetes. "
The National Health Disparities Committee assessed
abstracts that focused on key components or domains of
social determinants of health and cultural aspects in diabetes
care, including but not limited to socioeconomic status,
neighborhood and built environment, food environment,
health care access and quality, social and community
context, biological and behavioral influences, and cultural
factors within the health care setting.
Members of the National Health Disparities Committee help
to shape the Association's efforts to reduce inequities facing
populations disparately affected by diabetes. They provide
expert guidance on effective community support, program
evaluation, and the development of strategies to reduce
disparities and improve health equity across the spectrum
from consumers to providers and clinics to communities.
