Experimental: Social Media Intervention

In addition to receiving usual care, participants enrolled in the social media arm will receive diabetes education and support over the course of 6 months by following the study team's Instagram page and engaging with the study team and other adolescent participants on Instagram.

No_intervention: Usual Care

Usual care reflects the standard treatment currently provided to adolescents living with type 1 diabetes. Every adolescent with diabetes is cared for by a team of diabetes specialists which includes a provider (MD, Physician Assistant and/or Nurse Practitioner), registered nurse, nutritionist and social worker. Adolescents with type 1 diabetes are seen by their multidisciplinary team approximately every 3 months. In addition, they have access to their multidisciplinary care team via telephone and/or MyChart communication as often as is necessary between clinic visits.
