Abstract

Heart2Heart is a theoretically-grounded racial-healing intervention for people of color created by people of color to help reduce levels of discrimination-based stress they may be experiencing. H2H contains definitions on racial trauma and how it affects us, a Racism Recovery Plan, and allows for skills based learning on detecting Microaggressions, using Microinterventions, and learning mindfulness skills. H2H originally began as an in-person intervention using a multiple-baseline design with only Latinx students with promising results, however we had to move online through zoom due to the pandemic's effects. This called for an online delivery system, which is what H2H Online will be. Specifically, H2H online will be a self-paced delivery system through a randomized control trial where students can go through the separate modules and learn about racism and discrimination, and will give them the tools to combat these negative effects. H2H Online will be a a safe space for people of color to express and heal from their racial trauma.
