Peer Enhanced Depression Care: Using Peer Mentors to Provide Self Care Support to Low Income and Minority Older Adults

Massachusetts General Hospital·interventional·Posted Mar 24, 2020·Updated Nov 20, 2024

In Brief

A clinical study evaluating PEERS and Social interaction for Depression. Completed, enrolled 149 participants across 2 sites.

Detailed Summary

Fifteen to twenty percent of older Americans (6 to 8 million people) suffer from depression but more than one-half do not receive any services, a burden disproportionately shared by low-income and minority older adults who receive few or no services. The investigators propose to test a community-based peer model of depression care called PEERS (a peer support program) that provides self-care support for minority and low-income older adults.
