Summary

This pilot study tests whether an 8-week mobile app called MOMent can help mothers who are experiencing food insecurity build coping skills and reduce stress. The app uses techniques from cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT), including goal-setting, self-monitoring, and skill-building reflections. Participants will use the app and complete surveys about their mental health and coping. The study aims to see if the app is practical and acceptable for future, larger research.
