First seen Jan 14, 2026 · Last updated Jun 12, 2026 · Updated 18 times
Summary
This study looked at whether having a peer mentor—an older teen or young adult who also has IBD—can help youth ages 10-17 better manage their disease and improve their quality of life. Participants were randomly assigned to either a year-long mentoring program or educational activities alone. The study was terminated early, so results are limited.
