In Lebanon, approximately 20% of youth experience emotional distress and negative coping. Many live in remote tented settlements, which makes integration into mainstream communities difficult. They also face financial and social challenges and a lack of access to preventive programs that support their overall well-being.The Helping Hand (HH) program aims to address these challenges by creating a supportive environment for youth to learn healthy coping strategies while also expanding their social support networks through peer connections. HH is a freely downloadable digital game that has been previously tested with Syrian, Norwegian, and American adolescents. This project will test the effectiveness of delivering the HH program in a blended learning environment with the support of trained facilitators.
