Description: This publication investigates the role of social determinants of health, including income, residential environment, and access to healthcare, in perpetuating diabetes-related disparities, with a focus on the Black/African American population. Findings underscore the necessity of evidence-based, multi-sector interventions to address structural inequities and advance population health outcomes.
