Abstract

Objective: We adapted the empirically supported Family Teamwork intervention protocol to support collaborative parent involvement in type 1 diabetes (T1D) management among African American and Latino parents of children with T1D. This randomized pilot study aimed to evaluate feasibility and acceptability of the Type 1 Diabetes Empowerment and Management (TEAM) intervention.

Methods: African American and Latino parents (n = 59; 65% recruitment rate) of youth (ages 5-10 years, M = 8.9 ± 1.6 years; 59% female, M hemoglobin A1c 9.0% ± 1.9%) with diabetes duration of ≥1 year and who were fluent in English and not planning to leave the geographic area were recruited and randomized 3:1 to the TEAM intervention (n = 44) or usual diabetes care alone (n = 15). The intervention consisted of six group-based sessions co-led by a study interventionist and a trained parent leader, plus five phone calls with the parent leader. Secondary outcomes included psychosocial questionnaires and HbA1c at baseline and 12 months post-baseline.

Results: Participants attended a mean of 2.1 ± 2.0 (33%) TEAM intervention sessions. Acceptability ratings (5-point scale) among parents who completed ≥1 session (n = 28) were high: helpfulness (4.5 ± 0.75), encouraged new perspectives (4.5 ± 0.58), enjoyment (4.4 ± 0.70), learned new information/skills (4.3 ± 0.70), prompted change to diabetes management (4.6 ± 0.69), and positive impact on family (4.5 ± 0.69). Qualitative interviews (n = 35) indicated positive perspectives about emotional and informational support and suggestions for adding child intervention components. Pre-post data completion rates were 92% for questionnaires.

Conclusions: Despite feasibility challenges, the TEAM intervention was acceptable among parents who attended sessions. Reducing barriers to session attendance may be warranted to impact psychosocial and clinical outcomes.
