Overview

AI-generated summary, not a substitute for reading the source.

This mixed-methods pilot randomized controlled trial evaluates the Sibling Support for Adolescent Girls in Emergencies (SSAGE), a 12-week family-based intervention for displaced adolescent girls in Colombia. The study assesses feasibility, acceptability, and mental health outcomes among Venezuelan migrant and Colombian returnee families. While participants reported high satisfaction with the program content and mentors, quantitative analysis showed no measurable changes in mental health outcomes, partly due to low attendance rates and implementation barriers such as economic hardship and transportation issues.
