Youth vaping prevention with urban Indigenous communities of the southwest U.S.: a protocol for a randomized controlled trial
This study builds on the strengths of the urban Indigenous community and long-standing partnerships to address a critical need: reducing vaping disparities among Indigenous youth and their associated health impacts. By developing an evidence-based, culturally relevant, and sustainable intervention, this research aims to create lasting change and help eliminate racial and ethnic disparities in substance use.
