Felicia Hill-Briggs, Nancy E. Adler, Seth A. Berkowitz, Marshall H. Chin, Tiffany L. Gary-Webb, Ana Navas-Acien, Pamela L. Thornton, Debra Haire-Joshu

With the goal of understanding and improving the health of people with diabetes through addressing SDOH, a writing committee—convened by the ADA and co-led by WU-CDTR Director Debra Haire-Joshu —reviewed past evidence and research on diabetes risk and outcomes, as well as the impacts of interventions in these determinants.
