Boricua Youth Study COVID-19 Coping Intervention Study : THE BYS COVID-19 COPING INTERVENTION STUDY- PHASE II: A RANDOMIZED CONTROLLED TRIAL OF AN mHEALTH MINDFULNESS PROGRAM

The current pilot study is a randomized controlled trial with an intervention (n=25 parent-child pairs) and a waitlist control (n=15 parent-child pairs) group that examines the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary outcomes of the mHealth mindfulness program for parents. Parent participants will utilize a commercially available mobile phone application, Headspace TM, to complete 10-20 minutes of mindfulness exercises daily for six weeks. The investigators will measure the feasibility and acceptability of the mHealth mindfulness program for parents and clinical outcomes in both parents and children and also explore the effects of the intervention on stress markers including cortisol and inflammation (C-reactive protein (CRP) and Interleukin-6 (Il-6)).Participants will recruit from an existing longitudinal cohort, the Boricua Youth Study (BYS; NYSPI IRB protocols #4187R and #6476) and BYS-ECHO (NYSPI IRB Protocols # 7377).
