Creativity Camp Study

Status: Recruiting
This study explores how engaging in creative activities may be helpful for mental health and wellbeing in adolescents. Study participants will attend eight sessions (over two weeks) of Creativity Camp which involves a range of different kinds of arts activities. Participants will also complete a series of questionnaires, interviews, and other assessments to assess the potential benefits of the camp. We have previously shown that Creativity Camp is effective for reducing depression symptoms and improving well-being in adolescents with depression.
