Project Women's Insomnia Sleep Health Equity Study (WISHES)

Summary

The purpose of this study is to achieve health and healthcare equity by implementing an equity-focused, mindfulness-based sleep intervention to reduce stress and sleep deficiency-related cardiometabolic disease burden in Black women.

Detailed Description

In phases 1 and 2, the investigator will identify multi-level barriers and facilitators to implementing the online mindfulness-based therapy for insomnia (MBTI) through an equity lens using community-engaged research with key stakeholders. The investigators will then develop and refine equity-focused implementation strategies with the community advisory board, comprised of community-based organization members, African Methodist Episcopal Zion Church networks, clinicians, and community health workers (CHWs). In phase 3, the investigators will use a Hybrid Type 1 effectiveness/implementation design with a pragmatic randomized controlled trial with MBTI and a waitlist control in Black women with insomnia. Specialists will assess and address social needs of Black women, and registered nurses will deliver the online MBTI intervention in the community settings. The focus of this registration is phase 3. The study will contribute to equity-focused implementation science and policy decisions by providing multi-level implementation determinants, equity-relevant metrics, and contextual factors through community-engaged research and evaluation of the outcomes.
