Detailed Description:
Transgender andor gender minority youth TGMY ie any identity other than cisgender experience concerning rates of mental health problems self-harm alcohol and drug use sexual risk-taking and violence victimization and perpetration Minority stress theory states that peer and family rejection and internalized transphobia predict negative health outcomes in TGMY This highlights the urgent need to identify effective programs that prevent psychosocial and behavioral health issues among TGMY Mentoring programs may be especially impactful for TGMY given that these programs may help alleviate adverse outcomes associated with peer and family rejection and promote self-acceptance among TGMY However few mentoring programs exist specifically for TGMY and those that do have not been rigorously evaluated often require guardian permission generally occur in person via community organizations--which excludes TGMY in high stigma rural areas of the United States from participating and rarely include evidence-based skill-building components eg social-emotional skills
The specific aims of this trial are as follow
1 Assess acceptability and feasibility of the Teen Connection Project TCP through observations to evaluate program delivery and observe mentor-mentee interactions post-session surveys and exit interviews with participants
2 Generate preliminary data on the TCPs efficacy in reducing psychosocial and behavioral health issues facing TGMY including mental health problems self-harm alcohol and drug use sexual risk-taking and teen dating violence
3 Identify treatment options for TGMY
