Mobile Phone Support for Adults and Support Persons to Live Well With Diabetes

This study evaluates a mobile phone-delivered intervention (FAMS 2.0; Family/friend Activation to Motivate Self-care) designed to help adults with type 2 diabetes set and achieve self-care goals and improve the quality of family/friend support for their goals. The investigators hypothesize that FAMS 2.0 will improve glycemic control and reduce diabetes distress among patients and reduce support burden and diabetes distress in enrolled support persons. The investigators hypothesize the mechanisms by which FAMS 2.0 will affect these outcomes for the patient include (a) increased helpful and reduced harmful family/friend involvement, (b) increased self-care (i.e., diet, physical activity, medication adherence), and (c) increased diabetes self-efficacy.
