Summary

This study tests a program called FAMS-T1D that helps young adults (ages 18-24) with type 1 diabetes set goals and get support from a friend or family member. The goal is to see if this approach improves blood sugar control, reduces diabetes distress, and helps the support person without overwhelming them. About 280 participants with diabetes and their chosen support person will take part.
