Northern Arizona University
Summary
The goal of this clinical trial is to learn about the impacts of participating in a peer mentor program in a Southwestern Tribal Community. The main questions it aims to answer are: * In American Indian/Alaska Native communities with unique cultural characteristics, how should a youth-focused sociotechnical behavioral health intervention be designed to encourage sustained engagement and positively impact indicators of behavioral health?; * How can interactive technical interventions be designed to best support sustained community engagement in a challenged network environment? Participants will: * Be trained as peer mentors * Be trained in how to use the QI App to communicate with mentees * Guide daily conversation prompts with a group of 3 mentees via the QI App * Provide daily encouragement to mentees to engage with mindfulness activities on the QI App
