Brief Summary
The goal of this Hybrid Type 2 effectiveness-implementation pilot randomized controlled trial is to assess the feasibility and preliminary effectiveness of a community-based wellness coaching intervention to prevent type 2 diabetes (T2D) among South Asian (SA) and Black African and Caribbean (BAC) communities in the Peel region of Ontario, Canada. The study evaluates the impact of the intervention on reducing diabetes risk and related intermediate outcomes, including biomarkers, anthropometric measures, well-being, knowledge, health behaviours, and family-level outcomes in participating family dyads. Each SA and BAC family dyad will consist of a primary adult family caregiver aged 18 years or older, who does not have T2D and is not taking pharmacological treatment for blood glucose reduction, and a youth aged 14 to 24 years residing in the same household. The study aims to generate preliminary evidence on both the implementation and effectiveness of the intervention over a 12-month period. Participant dyads of each ethnocultural group (SA and BAC) will be randomly assigned to either the intervention or control arm. During the first six months, participants in the intervention arm will receive biweekly health and wellness coaching delivered by trained community-based coaches, optional group coaching sessions with other participants, weekly motivational messages, and an educational T2D prevention booklet. Participants in the control arm will receive only the educational T2D prevention booklet. Implementation and effectiveness outcomes will be assessed using a mixed-methods approach, integrating qualitative and quantitative data collected at baseline and at the 6- and 12-month post-randomization time points. This approach is intended to generate comprehensive, preliminary evidence on both the implementation and effectiveness components of the health and wellness intervention. Quantitative and mixed-methods analyses will be conducted to provide an integrated understanding of the implementation and effectiveness outcomes studied. Findings from this pilot trial will inform the design of larger, definitive studies to better assess impact and guide future escalation and/or adaptation. Results will be disseminated in multiple formats and tailored to diverse audiences, including community partners, local communities, academics, researchers, and decision-makers.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (12)
Implementation Outcome: Intervention Acceptability
Definition: The perception among our intervention participants (SA and BAC) and coaches that the delivery of the intervention curriculum is agreeable, palatable, or satisfactory. Level and unit of analysis: At the provider (coaches) and study participant level. Measure: Level of rating and perceived intervention's approval, appeal, likeness, and welcoming. Data will be collected from intervention participants and study coaches using semi-structured interviews and surveys. Interviews will use open-ended questions to explore perceived acceptability, including appropriateness, appeal, likeability, and a sense of welcome. Acceptability will also be measured using the 4-item Acceptability of Intervention Measure (AIM), rated on a 5-point Likert scale ranging from 1 (completely disagree) to 5 (completely agree), with higher scores indicating greater acceptability.
Six months post-randomization and twelve months post-randomization
Implementation Outcome: Intervention Appropriateness
Definition: The perceived fit, relevance, or compatibility among our intervention participants and coaches (frontline intervention providers) of the intervention content and format in addressing their needs for T2D prevention associated with T2D risk factors. Level and unit of analysis: At the provider (coaches) and study participants' level. Measure: Level of rating and perceived fit, relevance, compatibility, suitability, and usefulness. Data collection and instruments: Data collected through individual semi-structured interviews and surveys. Interviews will explore perceived fit, relevance, compatibility, suitability, usefulness and practicality of the intervention content and format. The survey includes a 4-item Acceptability scale with a 1-5 score (1 = Completely disagree, 2 = Disagree, 3 = Neither agree nor disagree, 4 = Agree, 5 = Completely agree), as well as qualitative questions.
Six months post-randomization and twelve months post-randomization
Implementation Outcome: Intervention Reach
Definition: The proportion of and representation of the targeted SA and BAC family dyads that participated in the intervention. Level and unit of analysis: At the study participant level. Measure: Reach rates and related factors. Data collection and instruments: Measured as the reach rate of the targeted population (percentage of eligible families with children aged 14-18 in Peel of BAC and SA communities that were enrolled in the study), and the percentage of representativeness of the enrolled participants in relation to the SA and BAC population as related to socio-demographic and T2D risk. Qualitative questions exploring drivers of participation will be assessed at screening and enrolment using the expression of interest form, eligibility assessment form, and/or consent form. For example, participants will be asked: "What motivated you to participate in this study?"
Baseline
Implementation Outcome: Intervention Adoption (Uptake)
Definition: The decision or effort to begin using/implementing the plans/advice from the coaches. Level and unit of analysis: At the study participant level. Measure: Level of rating and perceived intervention's approval, appeal, likeness, and welcoming. Data collection and instruments: Quantitative measures will include enrolment rates; initial uptake (defined as the proportion of intervention participants and family dyads attending at least two sessions within the first month of enrolment); uptake at the end of the active intervention stage; and uptake at the end of the sustainability stage. Qualitative data will be collected through interviews using open-ended questions to explore reasons for enrolment, initiation of the health and wellness T2D coaching intervention, and factors influencing participation, adherence, and completion.
Six months post-randomization and twelve months post-randomization
Implementation Outcome: Intervention Availability
Definition: The extent to which the intervention is supplied and accessible at any given time. Level and unit of analysis: At the provider (coaches) and study participant level. Measure: Level of availability and perceived accessibility. Data collection and instruments: Data will be obtained from quantitative measures derived from study and intervention delivery logs at the coach and site levels, as well as from individual semi-structured interviews (accessibility perceptions and driving factors) with the study's intervention coaches and participants in the intervention group. Examples of specific measures: 1) Percentage of participants able to access a session within the first month of enrolment (randomization); 2) Attendance rates at scheduled sessions; 3) Percentage of participants reporting satisfaction with program availability; and 4) Number of last-minute cancellations by participants (participant-related diverse reasons).
Six months post-randomization and twelve months post-randomization
Implementation Outcome: Intervention Fidelity
Definition: The degree to which the intervention was consistently implemented as planned. Level and unit of analysis: At the provider (coaches) and study participant level. Measure: Level of fidelity and driving factors. Data collection and instruments: Quantitative/qualitative measures using intervention delivery logging, fidelity checklist, audio-recorded coaches' sessions, and semi-structured interviews. Measures include 1) A self-fidelity score ( based on a self-reported fidelity checklist collected after each coaching session). 2) External-fidelity monitoring. A trained independent assessor will also evaluate intervention delivery logs and a sample (10-20%) audio-recorded coaching sessions to determine a fidelity score on a 0-100 scale for the following dimensions: a) Adherence /Content delivered, b) Dose/Dose delivered and received; and c) Coaching Delivery Quality (competence delivery).
Six months post-randomization, and twelve months post-randomization

Measure: It will be measured using the EQ VAS, whose values range from 0 to 100, reflecting overall health (0 = worst imaginable health; 100 = best imaginable health). Assessment participant unit: Adult family caregiver participants and youth participants. Analytical level: Overall health rated score of the EQ VAS.
Baseline, six months post-randomization, and twelve months post-randomization
Effectiveness Outcome: Health-attached QoL Meaning and Perceptions
Measure: The perceived level of health-related quality of life (QoL) will be assessed using qualitative questions, such as: 1. When you think about health, what does it personally mean to you, and how does that meaning relate to the number you selected on the health scale (EQ-VAS)? 2. Can you explain why you chose that number on the health scale (EQ-VAS) today? 3. What aspects of your health, daily life, or overall well-being influenced your rating? Assessment participant unit: Adult family caregiver participants and youth participants. Analytical level: Salient findings will be derived from qualitative data.
Baseline, six months post-randomization, and twelve months post-randomization
Effectiveness Outcome: Happiness
Measure: 1) Well-being will be assessed using the VAS-Happiness Scale, with a value range of 0 to 100 (0 = completely unhappy, 100 = completely happy). 2) A qualitative happiness assessment using open-ended questions will complement the VAS-Happiness Scale, exploring participants' perceptions of the meaning and interpretation of VAS-Happiness Scale score selection. Assessment participant unit: Adult family caregiver participants and youth participants. Analytical level: 1) Overall VAS-Happiness score; and 2) Salient qualitative happiness themes (definition and driving scoring factors).
Baseline, six months post-randomization, twelve months post-randomization

Diabetes-Prevention Health and Wellness Coaching
EXPERIMENTALFamily dyad Participants will take part in a health and wellness coaching program type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevention, delivered in two stages. In Stage 1 (Active Coaching, months 0-6), participants will: 1) Engage in biweekly health and wellness coaching sessions (in-person or virtual) provided by trained community-based coaches (maximum session length will be 30 minutes); 2) Receive a short weekly "motivational message" which will be delivered to their phone or email; 3) Join optional monthly group-based health and wellness coaching sessions with other program participants (session length will be 2 hours); and 4) Receive an educational booklet for T2D prevention. In Stage 2 (Maintenance Coaching, months 6-12), participants will attend a mandatory coaching session (virtual or in person) in month 9. Additional coaching sessions may be scheduled with the coaches as desired by the participants. No group-based coaching sessions or motivational messages will be provided during Stage 2.
Diabetes-Prevention Booklet
ACTIVE COMPARATORParticipants will receive the same educational type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevention booklets as the Diabetes-Prevention Health and Wellness Coaching group. Participants from the Diabetes-Prevention Booklet group will be asked to use the T2D educational booklet at their own pace, set up their own T2D prevention goals, and independently access available health promotion, diabetes prevention, and social support services listed in the workbook throughout the 12-month study period. The Diabetes-Prevention Booklet group will not receive coaching sessions, motivational messages, group-based coaching sessions, or any additional diabetes-related guidance from the study's intervention coaches or research team.
Interventions
Biweekly health and wellness coaching sessions (in-person or virtual) for type 2 diabetes, provided by trained community-based coaches. The maximum session length will be 30 minutes, with no mandatory minimum. Coaches will also share a short weekly motivational message, delivered to participants' phones or emails, depending on preferences. The intervention group participants may join an optional monthly group-based health and wellness coaching session with other program participants. Group sessions will be approximately 2 hours in length.
A printed or digital educational booklet on type 2 diabetes (T2D) prevention. The booklet contains information related to the causes and signs of T2D, diet and physical activity engagement activities, mental well-being enhancement and stress management, strategies to set up positive lifestyles and behavioural change, along with a list of local health and social support services that may be used to further promote overall well-being and support T2D risk reduction.
