title = "Poster: Preliminary Outcomes of a Culturally Tailored Mindfulness Mobile App for Mental Health within Underserved African American Communities During COVID-19",
abstract = "This poster presents preliminary findings from a study in progress, which indicate that a specially-designed mobile app can serve as a viable delivery system for a mindfulness-based stress reduction (MBSR) intervention for historically underserved and minority communities experiencing mental health effects of worry and stress during the COVID-19 pandemic. Our early data suggest that the app is well-received and usable for the target population and serves as an effective delivery platform for MBSR interventions for underserved and minority communities.",
