NCT ID NCT07378254
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study is developing and testing a 12-week group education program called FEELS to help Black young adults (ages 18-35) who have experienced trauma better understand mental health and substance use. Participants will attend weekly sessions and complete surveys to see if their knowledge, attitudes, and help-seeking intentions improve. The goal is to see if this community-driven approach is feasible and helpful.
