Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Hemoglobin A1c

    Blood glucose management

    9 months

Study Arms (2)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

Receive DICE intervention during phase 1 while waitlist control arm receives usual clinical care.

Behavioral: Diabetes Inspired Culinary Education (DICE) - Phase 1

Waitlist Control

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Receive DICE intervention during phase 2 while intervention arm receives usual clinical care.

Behavioral: Diabetes Inspired Culinary Education (DICE) - Phase 2

Interventions

The DICE intervention is a 10-lesson family-and community-based culinary nutrition and diabetes education program. Intervention Mapping, a protocol for developing theory- and evidence-based health promotion programs, was utilized to develop the DICE intervention. Rooted in the Social Cognitive Theory, the DICE intervention targets key personal, behavioral, and environmental constructs as mechanistic pathways for eliciting change in the consequential health outcomes of poor glycemic control in children and adolescents with type 1 diabetes.
