About this study
In plain language
This study tests Behavioral Activation, a mental health treatment led by peers who are in recovery from mental health or substance use problems. It looks at how well the treatment works and how it could be used in a community center that provides physical and mental health care. It is for adults with depression symptoms who receive care at the center.
Low-income individuals have limited access to evidence-based interventions for mental health. Peer recovery specialists, individuals in recovery from mental health and/or substance use problems, have the potential to increase access to evidence-based interventions for individuals from low-resource communities, particularly when trained and supervised in models that are acceptable and feasible in these communities. This study will examine the effectiveness and implementation potential of a peer-delivered evidence-based intervention (Behavioral Activation) among individuals receiving services from a community-based treatment setting providing integrated physical and behavioral healthcare.
Compensation is read from the study's own description and may be missing — always confirm with the study team.
