Summary
There are currently no interventions aimed at preventing both alcohol and other drug (AOD) use and interpersonal violence that have been adapted for Latino adolescents. This study hypothesizes that a cultural adaptation of a validated AOD use prevention program (Keepin' it REAL) that also integrates violence prevention content will both amplify the AOD use effects of that intervention for Latino adolescents and lead to reductions in youth violence.
The purpose of this study is to conduct a pilot-test randomized controlled trial (RCT) of a youth AOD use prevention intervention that has been adapted to integrate interpersonal violence content and has been culturally adapted for a specific Latino population (Venezuelan migrant youth). The goals of the pilot test are to determine feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effects of the intervention for future testing.
