Behavioral Intervention to Reduce Stress Among Black Gender Minority Women

Study Overview

This clinical trial focuses on testing the efficacy of different digital interventions to promote re-engagement in cancer-related long-term follow-up care for adolescent and young adult (AYA) survivors of childhood cancer.

Description

The research objectives of this study are to first, develop a culturally informed community-based intervention with guidance from community members (via focus groups and theater testing) to reduce the effect of chronic stigma exposure on psychological distress symptoms (PTS and depressive symptoms) among transgender women. Second, the research team will conduct a proof-of-concept trial to determine the feasibility and preliminary efficacy of the resulting intervention.
