Summary

Disparities between African-American and European-American youth regarding academic outcomes, mental health, and physical health exist. Depression, a very common mental health problem, plays a central role by impacting academic outcomes and cardiovascular health. Thus, a program that successfully reduces the likelihood for youths to develop depression should also reduce problems with academic outcomes and physical health and therefore reduce disparity in all three domains. Research demonstrates that European-American youth benefit more from programs preventing the development of depression than their African-American peers. Thus, the goals of this project are to (a) identify mechanisms that may result in differential program effectiveness across racial groups, and (b) adapt such a program (TIM\&SARA) so youth from diverse racial backgrounds benefit similarly. Freshmen in an urban high-school will participate in TIM\&SARA, fill out surveys and give biological data in saliva.
