This abstract will discuss the urgently need for improving self-management in people with diabetes from Mexico through an educative intervention. Assisting participants in self-management to build their skills may decrease morbidity and mortality and decrease future health care costs. Through this intervention, participants received valuable information on diabetes self-care behaviors.
