First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests a behavioral program designed to reduce psychological distress (PTSD and depression) in Black transgender women who experience chronic stigma. The program includes weekly group sessions led by a community member and a nurse, plus online educational materials and social resources. The trial will enroll 40 participants to see if the approach is feasible and acceptable, and whether it shows early signs of reducing symptoms.

behavioral intervention (group sessions, online educational content, and social resources)
What this could lead to
If it works, this could point toward a practical, culturally tailored program to reduce PTSD and depression symptoms in Black transgender women.
What could go wrong
This is a very small, early proof-of-concept trial with only 40 participants. It focuses on feasibility, not yet on proving the intervention works. Results may not apply to broader populations.
