Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Active Control
Group I: Aevidum curriculumActive Control1 Intervention
Curriculum: Aevidum has developed a 5-lesson 3-hour mental health curriculum that can be broken up and integrated into existing school health curricula. The study team in partnership with the Executive Director of Aevidum will collaborate with schools to implement the curriculum to their 9th grade students.
Group II: Aevidum curriculum + clubActive Control2 Interventions
Curriculum + club. Schools assigned to the curriculum plus club will also start an Aevidum club at their school. Club basic processes and ideas for events are housed on the Aevidum website. Schools will select faculty and student leaders who will participate in a kickoff web-based training at the start of the academic year. The training is led by current Aevidum student leaders at schools with successful clubs. This is a standard orientation process that Aevidum has run for many years in-person, but has been adapted to a virtual format with the COVID-19 pandemic.
