The study's objectives were to improve providers' knowledge of mobile health core competencies; increase providers' knowledge and clinical use of the Virtual Hope Box (VHB) mobile app as an evidence-based treatment tool; and test elements of a structured knowledge translation paradigm.


 knowledge translation best practices were integrated into a training workshop with the goal to increase provider adoption of the VHB.  Pretraining, <22% of respondents indicated that they had used the VHB in clinical practice; post-training, 89% of respondents reported their intent to use the VHB.  At 3 and 6 months, 82% of evaluation respondents indicated actual use of the VHB.
