The Sleep Treatment Education Program Together (STEP-Together)
STEP-Together is delivered in a single videoconference group session delivered live by a presenter. During the session, the participants are able to see and hear the presenter, view the presentation slides, and ask questions. The presentation includes educational information on the problem of insomnia after cancer and specific suggestions for improving sleep. Suggestions are presented in four sections addressing lifestyle issues, sleep environment, sleep timing, and managing expectations and challenges. During the course of the session, participants are asked to use these suggestions to develop an individual sleep action plan they will use to improve their sleep.

In the session, participants are asked to review their progress with their plan, report on areas of sucess and difficulty with adoption, and to problem solve with the study team as needed to support their sucessful implementation their plan.
