The augmentation would consist of providing the participant with a letter to be shared with their primary care doctor indicating their Hb A1c level and depression score at the time of eligibility screening. The research team will also attach a list of local mental health service providers to the letter. The participants randomized to the wait-listed control group will also be offered access to the intervention after the trial is completed in the event that the randomized controlled trial (RCT) has significant results.

Participants will attend weekly 2-hour group Empowerment and CBT classes for 12 weeks led by two trained health educators. Participants will learn cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) techniques to manage their mood. After CBT, participants will learn a diabetes education format that is grounded in empowerment theory that employs group problem solving, individualized goal setting, and personal behavioral change "experiments" designed to help patients set priorities and to become better self-managers of both diabetes and their mood. As part of the intervention activities, group members will be advised to monitor their blood sugar levels, blood pressure, and mood on a daily basis.

Поведенческий: Empowerment and CBT Classes

Participants randomized to the intervention arm will receive a manual with 3 CBT modules and 1 Diabetes Empowerment module. CBT Module 1 covers "Understanding Depression and Diabetes", Module 2 "How Thoughts Affect Your Mood and Diabetes Care", Module 3 "How Activities Affect Your Mood and Diabetes Care". The Diabetes Empowerment Module covers topics including the following: food, exercise, medicine, diabetes and your health, social support, communication skills, and community resources.
