The goal of this study is to form a Teen Advisory Board (TAB), who will partner with our study team to co-design a beta-test a new prototype of the Firefly program, a mobile-native insomnia cognitive behavioral therapy intervention for teens. This new prototype will have addressed issues that adolescents who had used the first version of the program deemed to be barriers to engaging with the treatment.
