Navigating Financial and Health-Related Social Needs in Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Survivors (AYA-NAV) (NCT06950983)
Navigating Financial and Health-Related Social Needs in Adolescent and Young Adult Cancer Survivors (AYA-NAV): A Digital Intervention Pilot Study
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Aim 1: Refine the HRSN navigation model to integrate a digital platform (Findhelp.org) to meet the needs of AYAs. The investigators will conduct iterative co-design sessions with AYAs and caregivers to understand their views on the existing Findhelp.org website and the likely need for other human-to-human and digital strategies to augment platform engagement (e.g., text reminders) and to address vocational needs. Aim 2: Evaluate the feasibility and acceptability of the refined hybrid intervention that includes digital + person-to-person HRSN navigation. Aim 3: Explore the preliminary impact of the refined hybrid intervention, compared to elevated usual care (a one-time referral to FindHelp.org alone), on reduction in financial distress (AYA and caregiver) and on AYA global health (i.e., mental, social, physical).
