Updates
This page shares news and updates from the DIRECTION trial. Here, you’ll find information about how the study is going, what we’re learning, and what’s coming next. We also share highlights from new research, community events, and publications related to teen physical and mental health. Our goal is to keep participants, families, and community partners informed and connected as this work continues.
