UNDERSTANDING THE MENTAL HEALTH EXPERIENCES OF YOUTH WITH TYPE 2 DIABETES

Diabetes | Diabetes Mellitus | Diabetes & Endocrine Clinic | Diabetes Mellitus (Type 1 and 2)

The project aims to understand youth experiences of youth onset type 2 diabetes (T2D)-related mental health challenges. This will be done by adapting an online data collection platform to create a collaborative virtual platform, entitled a “living lab”, where youth can (a) create a user profile to become part of a participant registry, (b) participate in research about their mental health experiences, (c) prioritize their mental health needs and (d) help design knowledge resources that use artistic methods.
