DiaBetter Together is a strengths-based peer support intervention delivered to young adults (age 17-25) by trained Peer Mentors (age 20-35) during the transition between pediatric and adult diabetes care. The aims of this proposed randomized controlled trial are to evaluate the impact of the intervention on glycemic control (primary), time to first adult care visit, adherence, and psychosocial outcomes (secondary) in young adults with T1D after 12 months.
DiaBetter Together is a strengths based peer support intervention delivered to young adults (age 17-25) by trained Peer Mentors (age 20-35) during the transition between pediatric and adult diabetes care. The study aims to optimize transition in T1D by leveraging and building on young adults' diabetes strengths, self-management skills, and social supports. This intervention will maximize protective processes that can facilitate optimal transition by training Peer Mentors (experienced young adults with T1D who have successfully established care in an adult setting) to provide relevant information about successful transition, teach strengths-based skills for managing transition-related challenges, share personal transition-related experiences, encourage young adults to access their social support network, and serve as a positive role model. Delivery of these strengths-based intervention components through a Peer Mentor has potential to reduce isolation, increase access to relevant information, and facilitate engagement with self-management and T1D care. This intervention is a complement to existing systems of care for young adults with T1D for 12 months as they leave the pediatric setting.

Results reflect the number of participants who completed data. This differs from the protocol enrollment number, as some consented participants did not complete baseline data and thus were not randomized or followed for subsequent data collection.
Following trial completion, a subset of 20 participants from the Usual Care group completed an additional week of data collection related to their experiences with sleep. No intervention was administered - data collection only.
115 young adults consented to the trial. Of those, 14 did not complete baseline data and were therefore not randomized, and 1 was withdrawn due to a change in eligibility.
29 peer mentors consented to the trial and completed baseline data.

A parallel two-group design will be used to evaluate the intervention among n=150 young adults randomly assigned to the peer support intervention or usual care (1:1). All young adults are randomized to either an intervention group, in which they all receive the same treatment in addition to usual diabetes care, or a control group, in which they receive usual diabetes care without the additional intervention. Young adult participants will be in the study for 12 months.
Peer Mentor participants (up to n=36) will deliver the intervention to young adults randomized to the intervention group, and their outcomes related to being a Peer Mentor will also be evaluated pre-post.

| End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Diabetes Self-Management/Adherence (Self-Care Inventory-Updated) | The Self-Care Inventory-Updated (SCI-U) is a 8-item measure that asks respondents the frequency with which they completed diabetes self-management tasks in the past 1-2 months. Item responses range from (1) Never to (5) Always, higher scores = higher adherence. A total score is calculated by summing and averaging all items, with no subscales. The minimum possible score is 8 and the maximum possible score is 40. Higher scores indicate higher engagement in diabetes self-management behaviors. Collected for young adult participants in both arms (baseline, 6 mo, 12 mo) and Peer Mentors (pre- and post-involvement in study). | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Health-Related Quality of Life (Type 1 Diabetes and Life) | The Type 1 Diabetes and Life (T1DAL) measure assesses diabetes-specific health-related quality of life. Participants will complete the T1DAL version for their age (Adolescent: 12-17, 23 items; Young Adult: 18-25, 27 items; Adult-1: 26-45, 27 items), which asks respondents to rate the degree to which each item is true about their everyday quality of life with diabetes. Items responses range from 1 (not at all true) to 5 (very true). Total scores are calculated by reverse-scoring items as indicated in the measure development paper instructions, then calculating a mean score and multiplying by 25 to convert the scores to a 100 point scale. The lowest possible total score is 0 and the highest possible total score is 100. Higher total scores = better T1D-specific health-related quality of life overall. Collected for young adult participants in both arms (baseline and 12 mo) and Peer Mentors (pre- and post-involvement in study). | Baseline and End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Diabetes Strengths (Diabetes Strengths and Resilience Measure) | The Diabetes Strengths and Resilience (DSTAR) measure assesses participants' self-perceptions about what they do well with diabetes (known as diabetes strengths). Participants will complete the Young Adult version of the DSTAR, which asks respondents to rate how often the items represent their experiences/perspectives about their diabetes strengths. Items responses range from 0 (never) to 4 (almost always). A total score is calculated by summing the 16 item responses. Lowest possible total score = 0, highest possible total score = 64. Higher total scores = more diabetes strengths. Collected for young adult participants in both arms, not Peer Mentors. | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Social Support (Brief 2-Way Social Support Scale) | The Brief 2-Way Social Support Scale (Brief-2SSS) is a 12-item measure that assesses experiences of giving and receiving social support. There are 4 scales: giving emotional support, giving instrumental support, receiving emotional support, receiving instrumental support. Items responses range 0 (not at all) to 5 (always). Higher scores = higher perceived support. Young adults complete all subscales at baseline and 12 months, and only the 2 "Receiving" subscales at 6 months. Peer Mentors completed all 4 subscales. A Total score (combined) is calculated by summing all items, Range 0-60. Collected for young adult participants in both arms (baseline & 12 mos) and Peer Mentors (pre- and post-involvement in study). | Baseline & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Diabetes Distress (Diabetes Distress Scale for Adults With T1D) | The Diabetes Distress Scale for Adults with T1D (DDS-T1D) is a 28-item self-report scale that measures participants' experiences with distress related to living with diabetes. It assesses seven dimensions of distress: powerlessness, management distress, hypoglycemia distress, negative social perceptions, eating distress, physician distress, and friends/family distress. Items responses range from 1 (not a problem) to 6 (a very serious problem). The total DDS-T1 score is calculated by averaging the items . Min possible total score = 1, Max = 6. Higher scores = more diabetes distress; average score <2.0 = little/no distress, 2.0-2.9 = moderate distress, 3.0 or higher = high distress. Collected for young adult participants in both arms (baseline, 6 mo, 12 mo) and Peer Mentors (pre- and post-involvement in study). | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Depressive Symptoms (PROMIS Short Form Depression 4a) | The PROMIS Short Form Depression 4a consists of 4 items that are pulled from the PROMIS Depression Item Bank v1.0. These items assess how often the individual has been bothered by depression-related symptoms, including negative mood (sadness, guilt), views of self (self-criticism, worthlessness), and social cognition (loneliness, interpersonal alienation), and decreased positive affect and engagement (loss of interest, meaning, and purpose), over the last 7 days. Items responses range from 1 (never) to 5 (always). A total score is calculated by summing the items, ranging from 4-20. Higher scores = more depressive symptoms. Collected for young adult participants in both arms, not Peer Mentors. | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Emotional Support (PROMIS Short Form Emotional Support 4a) | The PROMIS Short Form Emotional Support 4a assesses perceived feelings of being cared for and valued as a person and having supportive relationships. Participants respond to 4 items on a scale from 1(Never) to 5 (Always) . A total score is calculated by summing the items. The possible range is 4-20. Higher scores = more perceived emotional support. Collected for young adult participants in both arms, not Peer Mentors. | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Informational Support (PROMIS Short Form Informational Support 4a) | The PROMIS Short Form Informational Support 4a assesses perceptions about the information or resources others provide to them (adequacy, availability, helpfulness). Participants respond to 4 items on a scale from 1(Never) to 5 (Always). A total score is calculated by summing the items. The possible range is 4-20. Higher scores = more perceived informational support. Collected for young adult participants in both arms, not Peer Mentors. | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Social Isolation (PROMIS Short Form Social Isolation Item) | The PROMIS Short Form Social Isolation item is a single-item measure from the PROMIS item bank that assesses participants' feelings of being isolated from other people. There is no time frame for responding to this measure. Participants respond to 1 item on a scale from 1 (Never) to 5 (Always), which is equivalent to the total score (higher = more perceived isolation). Collected for young adult participants in both arms (baseline, 6, & 12 mos), not Peer Mentors. | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| Transition Readiness (Readiness Assessment of Emerging Adults With Type 1 Diabetes Diagnosed in Youth) | The Readiness Assessment of Emerging Adults With Type 1 Diabetes Diagnosed in Youth (READDY) is a 46-item self-report scale that measures participants' preparation for the transition to adult diabetes care, including: knowledge of diabetes, navigation of diabetes care, management skills and behaviors, and insulin pump skills if applicable. Only 18 items from the 3 subscales [Knowledge (4 items - baseline and 12 mos only), Navigation (13 items, baseline, 6 and 12 mos), Health Behaviors (1 item, baseline and 12 mo only)] will be administered for this study. Items responses range from 0 (haven't thought about it) to 5 (yes, I can do this). For each subscale, a subscale score is calculated by averaging the items. Possible score range for each subscale = 1-5. Higher scores = higher readiness in each domain. Collected for young adult participants in both arms (baseline, 6, & 12 mos), not Peer Mentors. | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| General Quality of Life (Satisfaction With Life Scale) | The Satisfaction with Life Scale (SWLS) is a 5-item self-report scale that measures participants' perceptions about their life overall. Items responses range from 1 (strongly disagree) to 7 (strongly agree). A total score is calculated by summing the items. Possible score range = 5-35. Higher = greater overall satisfaction with life. Collected for young adult participants in both arms (baseline and 12 mo), not Peer Mentors. | Baseline and End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |
| BG001 | Usual Care | Participants randomized to the comparison condition will receive usual diabetes care only, without additional intervention through the study. They will participate in all study activities related to data collection, but will not receive the Peer Mentor intervention. In both conditions, participation in this study will not impact participants' ability to contact the pediatric TCH diabetes care team or any other medical services to receive medical care. |
| BG002 | Peer Mentors | Peer Mentors will deliver the DiaBetter Together intervention and will also be enrolled as study participants to permit assessment of their own outcomes from delivering this peer support intervention to younger people with diabetes.

| Secondary | Transition Readiness (Readiness Assessment of Emerging Adults With Type 1 Diabetes Diagnosed in Youth) | The Readiness Assessment of Emerging Adults With Type 1 Diabetes Diagnosed in Youth (READDY) is a 46-item self-report scale that measures participants' preparation for the transition to adult diabetes care, including: knowledge of diabetes, navigation of diabetes care, management skills and behaviors, and insulin pump skills if applicable. Only 18 items from the 3 subscales [Knowledge (4 items - baseline and 12 mos only), Navigation (13 items, baseline, 6 and 12 mos), Health Behaviors (1 item, baseline and 12 mo only)] will be administered for this study. Items responses range from 0 (haven't thought about it) to 5 (yes, I can do this). For each subscale, a subscale score is calculated by averaging the items. Possible score range for each subscale = 1-5. Higher scores = higher readiness in each domain. Collected for young adult participants in both arms (baseline, 6, & 12 mos), not Peer Mentors. | Differences between total analyzed and analyzed at follow-ups is due to participant attrition | Posted | Mean | Standard Deviation | scores on a scale | Baseline, 6-Month Post-Randomization, & End of Study at 12 Months Post-Randomization |

| EG001 | Peer Mentors | Peer Mentors will deliver the DiaBetter Together intervention and will also be enrolled as study participants to permit assessment of their own outcomes from delivering this peer support intervention to younger people with diabetes. Peer Mentors will be experienced young adults with T1D who have transferred to adult diabetes care. Peer Mentor Delivery: Peer Mentors deliver the intervention to multiple young adult participants, each for 12 months. Peer Mentors may take on one or more participants at a time, and Peer Mentors may stay in their role in the study (delivering the intervention) for 1-3 years. | 0 | 29 | 0 | 29 | 0 | 29 |
| EG002 | Usual Care | Participants randomized to the comparison condition will receive usual diabetes care only, without additional intervention through the study. They will participate in all study activities related to data collection, but will not receive the Peer Mentor intervention. In both conditions, participation in this study will not impact participants' ability to contact the pediatric TCH diabetes care team or any other medical services to receive medical care. | 0 | 50 | 0 | 50 | 0 | 50 |
