EFIs have the potential to improve community uptake of e-mental health programs. They should focus on providing information on the content and effectiveness of e-mental health programs and normalizing their use. Given that the sample comprised predominantly young females, this study may not be generalizable to other population groups. There is a strong value in involving people with a lived experience in the design and development of EFIs to maximize their effectiveness.
