Summary

This study tests a 5-week online program called WE BEAT that teaches teens with congenital heart disease skills to handle stress and bounce back from tough times. About 390 teens aged 12-17 will be randomly assigned to the program or usual care, and researchers will measure changes in resilience and quality of life over 6 months. The goal is to see if this group-based skill-building approach can improve emotional well-being for teens living with a chronic heart condition.
