Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: Diabetes JourneyExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
Diabetes Journey is a web-based intervention to address key adherence barriers. Participants randomized to this arm will first receive the mandatory Introduction and Problem-Solving Module. Based on their elevations on the Barriers to Diabetes Adherence measure, participants will receive up to 7 modules in total. Participants will navigate through the web-based theme park map and complete modules independently and then will have accompanying Zoom telehealth sessions with a therapist.
Group II: Enhanced Standard of CareActive Control1 Intervention
Participants randomized to Enhanced Standard of Care will receive general education via the T1DToolkit website, as well as 4 phone calls with certified diabetes educators (CDEs) from each site across 12-weeks. Content to address adherence barriers were modified and or newly developed for the Enhanced Standard of Care group via the T1DToolkit website.
