The purpose of this study is to examine participant adherence to intervention feasibility and acceptability of intervention, attention control, and implementation strategy.
A 1:1 pilot randomized controlled trial of the SOVA Peer Ambassador Program compared to attention control: brief psychoeducational independent assignments (i.e. reading SOVA articles and responding to open-ended questions without content creation and without peer interaction) (N=40) and evaluate feasibility of implementation strategy.

| Resilience/Positive Youth Development | Positive Youth Development will be assessed using The Positive Youth Development Very Short Form (PYD-VSF). The confidence subscale is reported which has 3 items with a total score ranging from 3 to 13 (α = 0.78), a higher score associated with a greater level of confidence. | 6 weeks |

| Self-Esteem | The 10-item Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) (α = 0.93) will be administered to assess participants' self-esteem. Items on the Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale ask about self-worth and self-acceptance and are scored using a four-point scale from 1 = strongly disagree, to 4 = strongly agree. The scores on each question are summed together, with higher scores indicating greater self-esteem. Scores range from 10-40 with a higher score equating to higher self esteem. | 6 weeks |

| Emotional Self-Efficacy | Emotional self-efficacy will be assessed using The Mental Health Self-Efficacy Scale (MHSES) (α = 0.82) Clarke 2014. MHSES was developed according to guidelines by Bandura as to how to create self-efficacy questionnaires (Bandura, 2006) . The questionnaire contains six items asking about the participant's confidence level in performing mental health self-care behaviors. Scoring of the MHSES is based on a 10-point Likert scale ranging from 1 ("Not at all confident") to 10 ("Totally confident"). Scores are a mean score ranging 1-10 with higher scores meaning higher mental health self-efficacy. | 6 weeks |

| Stigma | The Depression Stigma Scale measures stigmatizing attitudes toward depression treatment. It is a continuous measure and the total score ranges from 0-36. There are two subscales: the personal stigma subscale which totals 0-18 and the perceived stigma subscale which totals 0-18. These two are summed for the total stigma score. A higher score indicates a worse outcome. | 6 weeks |
