What is being tested?

'Bright Horizons' is being tested in this study. It's an intervention program designed to help young people manage their emotions better and make smarter choices about substance use by teaching them coping skills and problem-solving techniques.See study design

What are the potential side effects?

Since 'Bright Horizons' involves educational and behavioral strategies rather than medication, there are no direct physical side effects like you'd expect with drugs. However, discussing sensitive topics might be emotionally challenging for some participants.
