This $162,190 federal Project Grant award from the National Institute of Nursing Research (NINR) under CFDA 93.361 Nursing Research supports the development and pilot testing of a peer-led, web-based psychosocial support intervention for Black breast cancer survivors. The primary goal is to examine the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary efficacy of the intervention in reducing distress and improving health-related quality of life among this population, who experience disproportionately higher mortality rates and poorer psychosocial outcomes compared to non-Hispanic white women with breast cancer. The project will involve collaborating with a community advisory board, conducting focus groups and interviews to co-design the intervention, and carrying out a pilot randomized controlled trial to assess the intervention's impact. The ultimate aim is to prepare the grantee, an independent investigator, to secure future R01-level funding to test the efficacy of the peer-led support intervention in a larger trial.
