The purpose of this qualitative study was to explore storytelling (oral transmission of knowledge from personal life experiences) know in academia as "Phenomonology", as an educational method to help implement diabetes prevention strategies among Native Americans. Native Americans are 2.3 times more likely than Whites and other Non-Indigenous to be diagnosed at a rate of 200% higher than the U.S. population. This high prevalence rate warrants immediate attention.
