Personalized Comprehensive Diabetes Support for Children With Newly Diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes

The goal of this clinical trial is to learn if access to a diabetes coach improves quality of life (QOL) for families of children with newly diagnosed type 1 diabetes. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Determine if there are beneficial effects on diabetes-related QOL at the end of the 6-month intervention. 2. Determine if potential beneficial effects persist beyond completion of the support intervention, as measured by diabetes-related QOL at 12 months and 24 months following diagnosis Participants assigned to the intervention group will have access to a diabetes coach for 6 months following type 1 diabetes diagnosis. They will be compared to participants who are assigned to the control group and are receiving usual care.
