Summary

This study tested a program called COPE2Thrive, which uses cognitive behavioral therapy to help teens manage anxiety, stress, and depression. It was offered in school-based clinics to high school students from diverse communities. The goal was to see if this approach could improve early identification and support for mental health issues. The study included 39 teens and used computerized adaptive testing to measure symptoms.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
COPE2Thrive (cognitive behavioral therapy-based program)
What this could lead to
If successful, this approach could help schools better identify and support teens at risk for mental health issues, especially in underserved communities.
What could go wrong
This was a small, early-stage study with only 39 participants, so results may not apply broadly. The intervention is behavioral, not a medical treatment, and may not work for everyone.

Show the full entry requirements

Copied word for word from the study's registry entry, so the wording is the study team's rather than ours.

* High school students in CHA's catchment area (Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Revere, Somerville, Winthrop) * Youth who are fluent in English, Haitian Creole, Portuguese, or Spanish. * Youth who experience at least some symptoms, defined as a K-CAT-S score (from Aim 1) of moderate on at least one diagnosis with at least mild functional impairment. Patients with more severe symptoms or functional impairment or who do not meet the exclusion criteria are also eligible. Inclusion Criteria for COPE2Thrive: * High school students in CHA's catchment area (Cambridge, Chelsea, Everett, Malden, Revere, Somerville, Winthrop) * Youth who are fluent in English, Haitian-Creole, Portuguese, or Spanish. * Youth who have completed WFIRS and K-CAT, and who do not meet the exclusion criteria. Exclusion Criteria: * 12th-graders will be excluded from the COPE2Thrive program since the participants will not be available for the study's duration. * Students who are already receiving behavioral health care. * Students who are considered to be seriously suicidal and in need of urgent care, in which case the participants would be ineligible based on the fact that the participants will be receiving behavioral health care.
