Mental Health CPR
The Mental Health CPR is a culturally adapted behavioral intervention implemented by trained Community Mental Health Workers (CMHWs). It includes interactive sessions designed to improve emotional well-being, communication between cancer survivors and caregivers, and access to mental health services. The content integrates educational videos, group discussions, and digital resources from the Community Mental Health Toolbox. The intervention also reinforces sustainability by promoting local resource use and peer support networks. Additionally, the intervention will periodically conduct mental health and distress screenings, integrate mental health promotion educational activities and skill-building activities, case management component will integrate the cancer-mental health toolbox and linkage to Psycho-Oncology Mental Health Services (MHCS) component through the PAPSI psycho-oncology mental health service program at PHSU if needed.

These materials include information on stress reduction, healthy lifestyle habits, and general mental health awareness but do not include interactive or CMHW-facilitated sessions.
