Summary

This trial will test if Bright Horizons can reduce binge substance use among adolescents.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for Native American adolescents aged 12-17 who have had a binge alcohol use event recently and live near the Fort Apache Indian Reservation. They need consent from a parent or guardian to join. Those with severe medical, psychiatric issues, immediate suicidal thoughts, recent trauma requiring intense intervention, non-English speakers, or severe visual impairment cannot participate.
What is being tested?
'Bright Horizons' is being tested in this study. It's an intervention program designed to help young people manage their emotions better and make smarter choices about substance use by teaching them coping skills and problem-solving techniques.
What are the potential side effects?
Since 'Bright Horizons' involves educational and behavioral strategies rather than medication, there are no direct physical side effects like you'd expect with drugs. However, discussing sensitive topics might be emotionally challenging for some participants.
