AYA Survivors Coping and Emotional Needs Toolkit (ASCENT)
What this trial is about
Our team has developed a digital intervention that aims to help adolescent and young adult cancer survivors (AYAs) manage symptoms of depression. This tool includes one psychoeducation component and four components that are based on evidence-based interventions for depression. The goal of this study is to test which component or combination of components meaningfully contribute to improvements in depressive symptoms among AYAs.
