Summary
This study tests an 8-week school program called INSPIRE, designed to help Indonesian teenagers aged 13-15 learn about mental health, build resilience, and reduce symptoms of depression and anxiety. Trained school counselors deliver the program using lesson plans and activities, with extra materials for parents. Researchers will compare the program group to a control group receiving standard care, measuring outcomes right after the program and one month later.
