What is being tested?

The study tests a single-session class called Empowered Relief for Youth (ER-Y), which educates about pain science and teaches self-regulation skills for managing chronic pain. The program's feasibility and effectiveness will be evaluated over a period of up to 12 weeks post-class.See study design
