A one-year juvenile arthritis support program (JASP-1) has been developed to offer patient- and family-centered support and education to empower children and their parents in their new situation. However, there is limited knowledge about children's experiences of participating in such support programs. Therefore, this study aimed to describe children\u2019s experiences of participating in JASP-1 during their first year with juvenile idiopathic arthritis.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>\n          <jats:sec>\n            <jats:title>Methods<\/jats:title>\n            <jats:p>Data were collected using individual semi-structured interviews with children who had participated in JASP-1.

Three distinct categories were identified.

This provided them with a comprehensive sense of security. Our findings indicate that patient- and family-centered programs like JASP-1 not only have the potential to enhance and standardize care for children newly diagnosed with JIA but also to contribute to improved and equitable healthcare outcomes in the future.<\/jats:p>\n          <\/jats:sec>","DOI":"10.1186\/s12969-025-01142-y","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,16]],"date-time":"2025-09-16T06:05:44Z","timestamp":1758002744000},"update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1007\/springer_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":1,"title":["Children\u2019s experiences of a support program during their first year with juvenile idiopathic arthritis"],"prefix":"10.1186","volume":"23","author":[{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0009-0000-4652-9688","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Karina","family":"M\u00f6rdrup","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0001-5807-3438","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Cecilia","family":"Bartholdson","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0002-2967-8080","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Eva","family":"Brostr\u00f6m","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]},{"ORCID":"https:\/\/orcid.org\/0000-0003-4103-6539","authenticated-orcid":false,"given":"Johanna Granhagen","family":"Jungner","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"vocabulary":"crossref","role":"author"}]}],"member":"297","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2025,9,16]]},"reference":[{"issue":"2","key":"1142_CR1","first-page":"390","volume":"31","author":"RE Petty","year":"2004","unstructured":"Petty RE, Southwood TR, Manners P, Baum J, Glass DN, Goldenberg J, et al.
