Change from baseline patient-centeredness
General self-rated Health (GSRH): a single item survey- self-administered single question such as "in general, would you say that your health is? excellent, very good, good, fair, or poor?", where excellent is scored as "5" and poor is scored as "0".

Change from baseline secondary diabetes self-management behaviors
fifty-six-item survey. This includes a series of secondary diabetes self-management behaviors to explore mediating factors that might influence changes in glycemic control. We will assess the proportion of individuals with severe hypoglycemic episodes and use the brief modified Block seven-item diet screener with a four-week time horizon to determine the number of servings per day of fruit and vegetables.

Change from baseline self-efficacy in managing diabetes
This self-management resource center validated eight-item survey on patient confidence in performing certain activities. The survey is scored from 0 to 10 on a visual analog scale (VAS).

Change from baseline diabetes distress
a two-item screening tool on 17 potential problems in the life of patients with diabetes. Patients are asked to score the distress ensuing from each problem during the last month from 1 to 6, where 1 is "Not a problem" and 6 is "a very serious problem".

5. Study Description

Brief Summary
To improve diabetes self-management outcomes, patients with type 2 diabetes (n=150 - aged 13-84) recruited from St. Vincent Clinic (SVC) and Teen Health Center Inc., Clinics will be randomized using block randomization to receive standard of care or the integrated model. Patients in the intervention arm will be assessed for social and physical needs before being enrolled in a year-long education program (iDSMES). Enrollees will receive dietary counseling, physical and occupational therapy, in addition to other mental, financial and social benefits counseling. The investigators will compare the intervention outcomes.
