Summary
This study tests an online platform called PURSUIT that teaches coping skills to Michigan youth aged 8-18 and their caregivers. The program provides cognitive-behavioral techniques for managing pain, stress, and mood, with extra substance use prevention content for teens 12 and older. Researchers will measure how feasible and acceptable the program is over about 8 weeks.

Active substance
PURSUIT online self-management platform (behavioral intervention)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a scalable, school-based tool to help children manage pain, anxiety, and stress while preventing substance use.
What could go wrong
This is a small feasibility study (100 participants) with no control group, so results may not prove effectiveness. The program relies on voluntary engagement, which may be low.
