Study Summary

This trial is testing a new intervention to help improve outcomes for adolescents with type 1 diabetes by reducing diabetes-specific distress and improving resilience skills.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for English-speaking teens aged 13-18 with type 1 diabetes who've been diagnosed for over a year and are experiencing significant distress. They must be able to participate in sessions and surveys. Those unable or unwilling to participate, wards of the state, or non-English speakers can't join.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The PRISM program aims to help these adolescents manage stress better, which may lead to improved blood sugar control and quality of life. Participants will be randomly assigned either to receive this new intervention or not as part of the study's comparison.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since PRISM is a resilience-training program rather than a medication, it doesn't have typical drug side effects. However, participants might experience emotional discomfort when discussing personal issues during sessions.

Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Group I: PRISM Intervention ArmExperimental Treatment1 Intervention
The goal of the intervention is to teach resilience resource skills for use in current or future stressful situations. The total intervention consists of two, 45-60 minute, one-on-one sessions approximately 2-4 weeks apart followed by a family meeting discussing the skills learned. Following the family session through week 12, participants receive bi-weekly "booster" contacts (1:1 check-in sessions with the interventionist) to practice/refresh skills and check-ins on how skills have been utilized. These boosters will then be delivered monthly in months 4-6. In addition, all PRISM participants have access to the digital PRISM app, which offers an interactive practice and tracking interface to continue enhancing skills.
Group II: Usual CareActive Control1 Intervention
Families in both randomization arms will receive usual medical care for diabetes, including psychosocial care provided by the mental health professionals affiliated with the diabetes clinic if needed. At both sites, every diabetes patient is cared for by a team of diabetes specialists which includes a provider (MD, Physician Assistant and/or Nurse Practitioner), dietician, and social worker. Subspecialty referrals for additional mental health or other support are made at the discretion of the primary diabetes provider.
