The Collaborative Life Skills Program’s (CLS) effectiveness is well established (learn more about how CLS is having a positive impact on San Francisco schools: https://psych.ucsf.edu/news/360-degree-approach-adhd-working-local-schools.) This four-year project aims to enhance the feasibility and usability of CLS in contexts with limited resources by leveraging digital health technology.
