Study Summary

This trial will study whether a program for high schoolers with issues like stress and schoolwork is helpful, and get feedback on it. #mentalhealth #education

The U-PEACE trial is for high school students aged 13-18 with emotional and academic challenges. They must show signs of depression or anxiety, be enrolled at target schools, and if under 18, have caregiver consent. It's not for those unwilling to participate or with certain mental health conditions like autism or substance use disorders.Check my eligibility

What is being tested?

This study tests the U-PEACE program aimed at supporting adolescents facing emotional and academic difficulties. Students will either receive this new intervention (U-PEACE) or stick to standard support (SAU), to see which helps more with their challenges.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since U-PEACE is a psychological support program rather than a medication, it may not have typical 'side effects'. However, participants might experience discomfort discussing personal issues or feel increased awareness of their emotions during the process.
