Summary

This study is testing a program called 'One All' that uses the sport Ultimate Frisbee to help young people in tribal communities in South India build mental health resilience. Researchers will train local young adults as facilitators to run the three-year curriculum. They will measure changes in resilience and mental well-being in 240 participants over 12 to 18 months to see if the program is feasible and effective.
