Using an adapted stress-reduction intervention called the CEDARS, the investigators will pilot the intervention in adolescents (N=40) to determine the feasibility and acceptability of CEDARS implementation and to investigate adolescent stress reduction. As an exploratory aim, the investigators will explore the influence of the CEDARS on CMH-related behaviors and CMH. The investigators expect that those adolescents who undergo the intervention will have the greatest improvement in mental health symptoms than their waitlisted counterparts. Our secondary hypothesis is that those who report more adversity will also report greater improvement in mental health symptoms than their peers.
