Participants in the Pilot-Randomized Controlled Trial (P-RCT) will be provided with PEERS/UTalk or an Education/Support (ES) control condition, and will receive up to 3 individual and up to 10 group sessions of either. Clinicians will be clinical postdoctoral trainee or doctoral students in clinical psychology with specialized training in evidence-based treatments for youth and experience working with child populations; all clinicians will receive intensive training on the PEERS/UTalk intervention prior to the P-RCT. The research-specific intervention is conceptualized as a preventive intervention, with the possibility of altering the length of the program as needed. The intent is to develop PEERS/UTalk so that it fits within a 60-90 minute period that meets about once a week, during one school semester, or could potentially be conducted as an after-school "club." As is typical of adolescent school-based prevention programs, the groups will be co-ed.
