Detailed Description:
The You Me Healthy Youth Empowered Self-care study seeks to evaluate a direct-to-participant mental health intervention for youth living in underserved communities comprising online self-screening tools educational materials and online linkage to treatment options and referral to free or low-cost accessible out-of-school community-based resources Participants will self-triage online to access education community resources and clinical care options when necessary This work will provide access and explore mechanisms for addressing wellness and anxiety needs among youth drawing from self-reported and web interaction data over a 4-month period The central hypothesis is that the researchers will demonstrate the value of a direct-to-participant community asset based mental health promotion program in response to COVID-19 impacts In addition the team aims to specifically identify approaches to enable access to community-based anxiety and mental wellness resources in underserved populations
Out-of-school youth programs play an important role in supporting students mental health yet program participation has dwindled since the COVID-19 pandemic These programs provide students with psychosocial developmental and health and wellness benefits Specifically structured youth programs can engage students in recreation provide academic enrichment access to green spaces as well as opportunities for promoting social interaction and connectedness with peers adaptive functioning mentorship as well as resilience mental health and well-being Out-of-school youth programs are particularly critical for students who live in under resourced communities with high transportation vulnerability and limited access to community-based recreation although unmet demand for programs is highest in underserved areas Nationally 9 out of 10 parents agree that out-of-school youth programs are important to their community and 80 of North Carolina parents indicate that these programs give them peace of mind and help them to keep their jobs Out-of-school youth programs also have been proposed as an ideal setting for supporting childrens health and wellness Put simply out-of-school youth programs provide students with safe and supportive settings for recreation mentorship learning and structure that are particularly essential for underserved communities However the COVID-19 pandemic has created hardships for youth to attend out-of-school programs nationwide Prior to the COVID-19 pandemic over 10 million youth participated in out-of-school programs nationally although more than 80 of programs reported difficulties providing ongoing services during the COVID-19 pandemic due to poor enrollment The gap in psychosocial support typically provided through out-of-school youth programs has likely exacerbated mental health needs during the pandemic particularly for underserved students and further overburdening the health care system
The research team is working together with two large community organizations as partners for this study Durham Parks and Recreation Department and Miami-Dade County Parks and Recreation Department who will coordinate directly with 150 youth and families 75 participants per site to link youth to community-based youth programs that have potential to support youth mental health needs All eligible and consented participants will complete basic data collection including demographics mental health symptom questions additional barriers to program enrollment and attendance and satisfaction survey questions using REDCap Participants will also receive online resource linkage to mental wellness education and anxiety treatment locations as applicable
