Abstract
Advancement Via Individual Determination (AVID) is a widely disseminated college preparatory program for students from backgrounds underrepresented in higher education. Although AVID seeks to improve educational outcomes, qualitative evaluations suggest that, by increasing social support and social-emotional skill development, AVID might secondarily improve mental health and well-being. However, there are no quantitative or experimental studies testing AVID’s impact on mental health outcomes. We sought to test whether students randomized to AVID had improved mental health and social-emotional skills compared with students randomized to the control group.
