What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a practical way to improve mental health care and outcomes for veterans from diverse backgrounds.
What could go wrong
This is a relatively small, early-stage trial (268 participants) testing a behavioral intervention, so results may not apply broadly. The program requires time and effort from participants, and benefits may be modest.
