Summary

This study tests a program called Mental Health CPR, designed to help Hispanic/Latino cancer survivors in Puerto Rico improve their emotional well-being and connect with mental health services. About 1,260 participants will attend community sessions led by trained workers, comparing the program to standard health education. The goal is to see if it reduces distress and increases use of psycho-oncology services.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Mental Health CPR behavioral intervention
What this could lead to: If it works, this could provide a practical, community-based way to improve mental health and access to care for cancer survivors.
What could go wrong: This is a behavioral intervention study, not a drug trial. Results depend on community participation and may not apply to other groups. It is still recruiting, so outcomes are uncertain.
