- Original description
Low-income individuals have limited access to evidence-based interventions for mental health. Peer recovery specialists, individuals in recovery from mental health and/or substance use problems, have the potential to increase access to evidence-based interventions for individuals from low-resource communities, particularly when trained and supervised in models that are acceptable and feasible in these communities. This study will examine the effectiveness and implementation potential of a peer-delivered evidence-based intervention (Behavioral Activation) among individuals receiving services from a community-based treatment setting providing integrated physical and behavioral healthcare.Read full original descriptionShow less
