In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

The goal of this 2-arm randomized control trial is to determine the impact of a community health worker delivered coaching intervention, GRIT, on preventing the early initiation of regular use of alcohol and cannabis among adversity-impacted adolescents ages 11-14 who do not regularly use alcohol or cannabis at baseline. The specific aims include: * Aim 1. Examine the effect of GRIT on preventing the early initiation of regular alcohol and cannabis use over time. * Aim 2. Examine the role of youth and caregiver self-regulation in mediating the effect of GRIT on adolescent rates of alcohol and cannabis use. Researchers will compare participants who are randomized to the GRIT intervention to an active control group, receiving a Digital Citizenship Curriculum, to see if those who participate in GRIT experience greater improvements in self-regulation and lower cardiometabolic risks.

๐Ÿ“‹ Eligibility rules (as published)
Inclusion Criteria: * Youth ages 11-14 years who score in the High-Risk category (i.e., 4 or more ACEs) on the ACEs and Toxic Stress Risk Assessment Algorithm * Has access to a smartphone and is willing to download applicable apps (95% of all adolescents have access to a smartphone) * Youth who are able to speak and read in English * Has a parent/guardian/primary caregiver (18 years or older) who is English- or Spanish-speaking and willing to participate in the intervention. Exclusion Criteria: * Youth who cannot speak and read in English * Youth who report any alcohol or cannabis use within the last 14 days * Youth currently enrolled in another family-based intervention (i.e., family therapy) * Youth in acute distress who are in immediate need of care (e.g., imminent risk of harm to self or others, active psychosis) * Youth who report their caregivers' home environment is unsafe to return to, have been deemed unsafe, or require supervised visits by the Department of Children and Family Services (DCFS) * Youth whose parent/guardian/primary caregiver declines participation will be referred to other programs in their community. * Due to drug experimentation being common in adolescence, our interest in preventing the early initiation of regular use of alcohol and cannabis use, and youth who regularly use substances requiring a different intervention, we will enroll youth who initially report recent cannabis use but later report no use within the last two weeks and have a confirmatory negative urine drug screening.
