Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate a pilot peer support intervention, entitled "Kanasina Gulabi" (Translation "My Dream Rose" in Kannada), designed to improve quality of life and diabetes management among young adults living with type 2 diabetes. The intervention, delivered by non-specialist providers - trained young adult peer navigators who are also managing type 2 diabetes - is expected to improve physical and mental health outcomes among participants. The sample includes young adults aged 18-40 with a diagnosis of type 2 diabetes in Mysore district, South India. Participants were quasi-randomly allocated to the intervention or control group. With the support of their peer navigators, intervention participants will develop action plans to improve their physical and mental health outcomes. This study plans to assess the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of the intervention.

Kanasina Gulabi

Kanasina Gulabi is a theory-driven, educational-behavioral intervention designed to improve the quality of life and diabetes management among young adults living with type 2 diabetes in Mysore district, South India. In this intervention, young adults with type 2 diabetes were matched to non-specialist peer navigators -- trained young adult peers who were also managing type 2 diabetes -- and developed action plans to improve their physical and mental health outcomes. Intervention components included group education, mindfulness activities, self care activity tracking, and phone follow-ups to address knowledge gaps and misinformation about type 2 diabetes, build self-efficacy for type 2 diabetes-related self care activities, and provide emotional support for diabetes management.
