Summary
This pilot study tests the Discovery Program, a 3-month behavioral intervention that combines surveys, goal-setting with a clinician, and personalized text messages to help adolescents and young adults with type 1 diabetes. Researchers want to see if it improves blood sugar control (HbA1c) and reduces diabetes-related distress compared to standard care. The study involves 150 participants aged 13-21 and includes a 6-month follow-up.

What this could lead to

What could go wrong
