Summary

This study tests a program called LEAP, which combines leadership skills and mindfulness to support teen well-being. About 504 adolescents in Massachusetts and Illinois will participate. The program was co-created with youth, who help lead sessions. Researchers will measure changes in happiness, behavior, and overall health.

What this could mean

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

Active substance
Leadership, Engagement, and youth Action Program with Mindfulness (LEAP) - a behavioral program combining leadership training and mindfulness practice
What this could lead to
If it works, this could provide a simple, school-based program to boost well-being and reduce behavioral problems in teens.
What could go wrong
This is an early feasibility study, not a large-scale trial. The program may not show clear benefits, and results may not apply to all teens.
