Families Experiencing Homelessness With Children Under 48 Months of Age Clinical Trial
Official title:
Collaboration to Promote Early Childhood Well Being in Families Experiencing Homelessness
The purpose of this study is to help us learn what are the best services to promote young children's healthy development for families who are experiencing homelessness. Participants may participate in three programs: 1. Healthy Home: four weekly, one-hour group sessions on health topics; 2. Attachment and Biobehavioral Catch-up (ABC): 10, one-hour parenting with parent and child; 3. Healthy Steps: helps families identify, understand and manage parenting challenges completed at well child visits. Participants will be asked to complete surveys, participate in focus groups, and interviews about the experiences with the services offered. Questionnaires about understanding health issues and surveys about parenting behaviors and self-efficacy will also be completed. Study duration is approximately 10 - 12 weeks. Programs may be continued once families move into permanent housing.
