Summary

The iPeer2Peer program matches teens with Inflammatory Bowel Disease (IBD) with an older mentor who has learned to manage their IBD well and can support them emotionally and socially. This study will compare two groups of teens: those who are in the iPeer2Peer program and those in the control group (no mentor).

Conditions

  • Inflammatory Bowel Diseases

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

iPeer2Peer program

In addition to standard care, youth in the experimental group will receive the iPeer2Peer Program. The iPeer2Peer program is a peer mentorship program that will provide modeling and reinforcement of self-management by pre-screened and trained peer mentors (young adults with IBD aged 18-25 years) who have learned to function successfully with their disease. Mentors will encourage youth to develop and engage in disease self-management skills and provide social support.

OTHER

Waitlist control

The control group will receive standard care but without the iPeer2Peer Program.
