This peer support program was developed in collaboration with patients, health care providers, and CF Foundation program staff. Mentees were paired with a trained peer mentor for 3-month mentoring via video, phone, email, or text. We found that the peer support program was feasible and acceptable. Success factors include a range of positive benefits including practical support as well as social and emotional support. Two-thirds of mentees reported at least 4 different benefits.
