Summary

This study tests a decision-making support program based on restorative justice principles, designed specifically for Black adults who are at high risk for lung cancer. The goal is to see if this approach increases understanding, trust, and willingness to get screened. Forty-five participants will attend a session and complete surveys to measure the program's acceptability and impact.

What this could mean

Our plain-language read of the trial. This is informational only — not medical advice or a prediction.

Active substance: Educational intervention (restorative justice-based decision-making support session)
What this could lead to: If successful, this approach could help increase lung cancer screening rates in Black communities, potentially reducing racial disparities in lung cancer deaths.
What could go wrong: This is a very small, early-stage study (45 participants) focused on feasibility and attitudes, not on actual cancer detection or survival. The intervention may not work in larger, more diverse groups.
