    Abstract
    Research has supported health literacy as one of the determinants in diabetes management (Fang et al., 2020; Kim & Utz, 2019; Robatsarpooshi et al., 2020; Van der Heide et al., 2014). Low health literacy has led to poor health outcomes in diabetes management (Poureslami et al., 2017; Van der Heide et al., 2014; Wang et al. et al., 2016). Research lacks interventions aimed at improving diabetes self-management for individuals with low health literacy (Jiang et al., 2019; Kim & Utz, 2019; Vandenbosch et al., 2018). This doctoral quality improvement project aims to evaluate the relationship between health literacy and diabetes self-management skills after participation in a web-based educational pilot program for adult patients with Type 2 diabetes in a rural community in Western Pennsylvania.
