Abstract
This paper highlights causes of disparities associated with the prevention and treatment of diabetes. An ecological approach is presented that depicts interactions among the social, institutional, and physical environments that may serve to further exacerbate these disparities. Recommendations for change, including enhanced cultural training, participatory involvement of communities to develop solutions, and implementing policies that equalize environmental exposures across populations, are recommended.Entities:
