HHI's Health Risk Assessment service helps uninsured and under-insured adults understand their current health risks before a preventable condition becomes a crisis. Community Health Workers provide bilingual, culturally responsive screening, explain results in plain language, and connect each participant with education, follow-up coaching, and referrals when results show a need for additional care.
Two diabetes-focused resources that pair naturally with HHI's free screening and follow-up support: one on continuous glucose monitors and one on everyday self-management habits.

Managing diabetes well can help prevent complications and improve quality of life. Diabetes means blood sugar levels are higher than normal because the body either does not produce enough insulin or cannot use it effectively.

In the past, people with diabetes had to check their glucose levels by pricking their fingers with a needle several times a day, sometimes even more than 3–4 times. This old-school finger-pricking method was pretty uncomfortable and inconvenient.
Screenings may include body mass index, blood glucose, A1C, blood pressure, pulse, cholesterol, and vision checks. The visit is designed to be practical and respectful: participants update their health status, discuss personal and family health history, and leave with next steps they can understand and act on.
When a screening points to elevated risk, HHI invites participants into one-on-one case management and coaching with a Community Health Worker. That support can include goal setting, nutrition education, reminders, referrals to free or low-cost care, and encouragement as participants build healthier routines.
