IDEA Project

IDEA Project The IDEA Project is a program for young adults with T1D. We help young adults take charge of their diabetes using new eHealth programs.

Dr. April Idalski Carcone, PhD from the Department of Family Medicine and Public Health Sciences at Wayne State University invites young adults, age 16-25, with type 1 diabetes to participate in the Improving Diabetes in Emerging Adulthood (IDEA) Project. Participants will use their own mobile device to take part in computer-based sessions and receive text message reminders to help them to better

manage their diabetes. Click the 'Learn More' Button or copy and paste the link (https://tinyurl.com/ideaprojectwsu) to a new browser window to complete the IDEA Project eligibility survey. Once completed, IDEA Project staff will contact you to discuss your eligibility and next steps for study participation. If you have any questions or would like more information, please feel free to contact IDEA project staff via email at [email protected]. The IDEA Project is funded by the National Institute of Diabetes Digestive and Kidney Diseases (NIDDK, R01 DK116901) and registered with clinicaltrials.gov (NCT04066959).

Celebrating every color, every story, and every individual this Pride Month. Support, compassion, and understanding can make a life-changing difference, especially within the LGBTQ+ and T1D communities. This month and every month, we recognize the importance of creating safe, supportive spaces where everyone feels valued, seen, and loved.

No one should have to navigate their journey alone. Resources, advocacy, and community support can make all the difference for individuals and families living with T1D and within the LGBTQ+ community. ๐Ÿค๐Ÿ’™โœจ
