Feasibility Study of Family Teamwork Peer-Delivery

The purpose of this study is to 1) convene African American and Latino Community Coalitions to adapt Family Teamwork (FT) for school-age youth, and integrate FT with the Smart and Secure Children (SSC) program community-based, peer delivery format, 2) identify facilitators and barriers to parental involvement in diabetes management for African American and Latino parents of children (5-9 years) with T1D to refine, with Community Coalitions the adapted and integrated Family Teamwork- Peer Delivery (FT-P), and 3) evaluate the feasibility, satisfaction, and preliminary outcomes of the FT-P program among African American and Latino parents of school-aged children (5-9 years) withT1D.

A randomized pilot trials will be conducted with African American and Latino families to examine the feasibility, parent satisfaction, and preliminary outcomes of FT-P. Families will be stratified by race/ethnicity, age, and HbA1c strata, and randomized to FT-P plus standard diabetes care or to standard diabetes care alone after completion of baseline assessment using a random numbers table generated by a program created through Baylor College of Medicine's Institute for Clinical Training and Research data management specialists.
