Summary

The goal of this clinical trial is to evaluate the feasibility, acceptability, and preliminary effectiveness of the SanaMente peer-led mental health and lifestyle program for rural Latino/a adults with chronic medical conditions and mental health concerns. The main questions it aims to answer are:

* Is the SanaMente program feasible and acceptable for rural Latino/a adults with chronic medical conditions and mental health concerns?

This is a single-arm pilot study without comparison group.

Participants will:

* Participate in the 6-8 week SanaMente peer-led group program.
* Complete surveys at baseline, mid-program, and post-program assessing mental health, lifestyle behaviors, overall well-being, and program satisfaction.
* Complete an exit survey and have the option to participate in a focus group to provide feedback on the program's usability, acceptability, perceived impact, and suggestions for improvement.
