NCT ID NCT06785311

Summary

This study is testing a 10-week after-school program called Native Spirit, designed to prevent substance use among Indigenous adolescents. The program uses local cultural values and activities to strengthen cultural identity, self-esteem, and resilience. Researchers will enroll about 60 youth from two Arizona tribal communities to see if the program helps reduce or delay substance use compared to a wait-list control group.
