High prevalence of chronic conditions among Hispanics combined with the aging of the population reinforces the need for preventative programs within this community. Previous studies on Hispanic utilization of prevention programs have been predominantly conducted in the southwestern region of the United States. This research was conducted to determine if the Ohio Hispanic population would be likely to use the Spanish version of Stanford’s Chronic Disease Self-Management Program (CDSMP), and to identify factors associated with successful implementation. The study was divided into two phases (key informant interviews and distribution of surveys to potential clients) and was conducted at a total of four site locations, one in each major metropolitan area of Ohio. Results show that the major factors important for successful implementation of the CDSMP are: building a context of trust for the program, expanding and creating community collaborations, and providing financial and infrastructure support for organizations and their clients.
