Summary

This study tests a program that combines storytelling and practical skills training to help young adults (ages 18-64) who have had a stroke feel more connected and capable in their communities. Over six months, 208 participants will attend eight one-on-one sessions with a facilitator. The goal is to see if this approach improves community reintegration and reduces depressive symptoms.

What this could mean

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

Active substance: Narrative and Skills-building Intervention (behavioural program)
What this could lead to: If it works, this could offer a practical, non-drug way to help young stroke survivors feel more connected and capable in daily life.
What could go wrong: This is a relatively small, early-stage trial testing a behavioural program, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention requires significant time and commitment from participants.
