This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
This trial is testing the HOPE intervention, a program that uses online peer leaders to help people with type 2 diabetes become more active and increase their daily steps. The study compares two groups: one that works with peer leaders and one that does not. Researchers want to see if having peer support makes it easier for people to exercise more regularly.
Many people with type 2 diabetes struggle to stay physically active, even though exercise is crucial for managing their condition. This trial is exploring whether peer support—learning from and being encouraged by others who have the same condition—can help motivate people to move more and improve their health.
If you join this study, you will be placed into either the peer support group or the comparison group. The peer support group will connect with trained peer leaders online who will encourage and guide you to increase your daily steps, while the comparison group will participate without peer leader support. Throughout the study, you will use your step-tracking app to monitor your activity, and researchers will check in with you to see how your exercise habits have changed.
