This study found food insecurity is likely a critical issue to address whenever it is present in adults with severe mental illness (SMI) and type 2 diabetes. The presence of family support mitigates the need for addressing food insecurity. Practices and policies aimed at both addressing health inequities such as food insecurity and strengthening family support among people living with SMI and comorbid medical conditions are important adjuncts to self-management interventions.
