Project Overview
DiaQuest is an immersive, imaginative world set inside the body of a child with Type 1 Diabetes.
Through exploration and interactive play, newly diagnosed children learn the fundamentals of diabetes and practice real-world blood sugar management—from basic concepts to everyday best practices.
Problem
In Detroit, up to 70% of newly diagnosed Type 1 Diabetes (T1D) children are readmitted in 3 month, largely due to low engagement in daily diabetes management after discharge. According to insights from endocrinologists at WSU, many families struggle to maintain consistent blood sugar monitoring, insulin management, and care routines at home.
This lack of sustained engagement not only increases medical risk but also places emotional strain on family relationships.
