NCT ID: NCT06329336 Not yet recruiting - Parenting Clinical Trials

Parenting Support for Justice Involved Families

Start date: April 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Together with the Community Care Team of King County Community Partnership for Transition Solutions (KCCPTS), we propose to collaborate in adapting parenting intervention(s) to support the well-being and effective parenting of parents re-entering the community, as well as that of their children's primary caregiver. Our aim is promoting the well-being of the parents/caregivers and their children, fostering positive child development, and ultimately, preventing the intergenerational transmission of adversity. The KCCPTS Community Care Team includes re-entry navigators who have lived experience of adversity and incarceration, bringing their unique insights regarding the re-entry experience, from both personal and professional experiences. This study will evaluate a task-sharing approach to offering formerly incarcerated parents and their families a parenting support intervention. That is, re-entry navigators will be trained to deliver evidence-based parenting interventions. This increases the feasibility and accessibility of the program, particularly because facilitators have shared experiences and trusted connections with their clients. This project proposes four main activities: 1) conduct focus groups with parents re-entering the community to better understand their parenting needs, 2) work with KCCPTS re-entry navigators to incorporate information from their experience and the focus group to adapt a parenting intervention, 3) train re-entry navigators to deliver the program, and 4) conduct a preliminary evaluation of the impact of the program on parents' well-being and parenting when the program is delivered by KCCPTS re-entry navigators. If this preliminary evaluation shows promise in supporting parent well-being and parenting effectiveness, we will seek funding to conduct a larger, more rigorous evaluation.

NCT ID: NCT06324318 Recruiting - Parenting Clinical Trials

Parenting in 2 Worlds Multisite Trial

(P2W)
Start date: September 14, 2023
Phase: Phase 2
Study type: Interventional

This research study will test the effectiveness of a culturally grounded parenting intervention called Parenting in 2 Worlds (P2W). This intervention is designed for American Indian / Alaska Native (AI) parents/guardians of adolescents who reside in urban areas. This will be a multi-regional effectiveness trial across four regions: Northeast (Buffalo/Niagara), Midwest (St. Paul/Minneapolis), Mountain (Denver), and Southwest (Phoenix). There are four specific aims. First, this study will test the effectiveness of Parenting in Two Worlds (P2W) as compared to an informational family health intervention, Healthy Families in 2 Worlds (HF2W), in improving parenting and family functioning. Second, this study will test if the relative effectiveness of P2W, compared to HF2W, varies by parent's/guardian's level of socioeconomic vulnerability, experiences of historical loss, or AI cultural identity. Third, this study will examine if P2W can reduce adolescent (ages 12 - 17) risky health behaviors including substance use, depressive symptoms, suicidality, and risky sexual behaviors. Fourth, this study will examine whether positive changes in parenting and family functioning that result from P2W lead to positive changes in adolescent's health behaviors.

KEEP Connecting Kin

KEEP-CK
Start date: February 13, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The current study provides a unique opportunity to conduct a summative evaluation of the KEEP Connecting Kin (KEEP-CK) program by leveraging extant relationships with Oregon's Child Welfare System (CWS), Self-Sufficiency Program (SSP), and our community partners to address the needs of informal kinship families and the youth in their care. Specifically, a randomized "services-as-usual" (SAU) waitlist control design plus qualitative methods will be used to evaluate the immediate (post-intervention) and sustained (10 month) impacts of the KEEP-CK program on child, adult, and service utilization outcomes, and prevention of entry into the CWS.

NCT ID: NCT06285552 Not yet recruiting - Parenting Clinical Trials

Evaluation of the Comprehensive Family Support Program (PAIF)

Start date: February 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The goal of this study is to evaluate the effectiveness of positive parenting programs targeted to parents of toddlers, children and adolescents carried out in Cantabria (Spain). We will collect information from the participants before the intervention, in the last session of the program and some months after, to verify if there have been some changes in the family dynamics of these parents, and if these changes continue after some time. Besides, we will compare these results with information from other families that are not taking part in the program. The main caregivers of the participating families and the practitioners in charge of the intervention will provide the information for the study. We expect that families participating in the programs will improve their parenting competencies and their family dynamics, and that these change will stay after the program.

NCT ID: NCT06273228 Recruiting - Depression Clinical Trials

Parenting Young Children in Pediatrics

Start date: September 27, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Research suggests that one in eight children in the U.S. currently lives with a parent with a substance use disorder. Parents who misuse substances are at increased risk of using harsh and other negative parenting practices with their young children, who are more likely to face challenges with emotional and behavioral regulation and subsequently misuse substances themselves. There is thus an urgent need for evidence-based interventions to promote positive parenting skills in parents who misuse substances. Interventions must be convenient, non-stigmatizing, and accessible to parents with problematic substance use, who frequently face barriers to engaging with healthcare systems. Pediatric primary care is an ideal setting to offer a brief intervention for maladaptive parenting behaviors associated with parental substance use, as the vast majority of children under 5 access pediatric primary care at least annually and parents generally report high levels of trust in their child's pediatrician. The Family Check-Up (FCU) Online app, which was created specifically to promote positive parenting skills in parents with past or current substance misuse, is ideal for delivery to parents with pre-school age children in a pediatric primary care setting as it is brief, convenient, and delivered in a self-directed format that parents favor. The main objective of this pilot study is to test the feasibility and acceptability of the FCU-Online, a brief, app-based parenting intervention, for parents reporting lifetime problematic substance use in a pediatric primary care setting. In this study, investigators will partner with pediatric primary care providers to recruit parent participants, then evaluate feasibility and acceptability by systematically assessing parents' engagement with the FCU Online app. Engagement data from the app includes time spent in app overall and in each module, activities completed, and which modules were accessed. Investigators will also administer a consumer satisfaction survey, which will ask parents to report on their perceptions of the app (e.g., helpfulness, useability, and effects on parenting). To assess engagement in telehealth coaching sessions, investigators will use the following variables: number of telehealth sessions completed, length of session, content of sessions, and coaches' ratings of participant engagement in the session and barriers to using the app. Coaches will also rate participant engagement on a 3-point scale from "low" to "high." Lastly, investigators will conduct qualitative interviews with a sub-sample of participants to solicit additional feedback on the acceptability of the FCU Online, focusing particularly on the perception of acceptability within an integrated primary care context and stigma associated with endorsing substance use in this setting. A second aim of this study is to assess pediatric healthcare providers' perceptions and attitudes regarding the fit of the FCU Online with their practice settings as well as potential barriers to implementation. Through semi-structured focus groups and qualitative interviews with pediatric healthcare providers, investigators will assess provider- and practice-level factors that may facilitate or impede the implementation of the FCU Online in pediatric primary care settings.

NCT ID: NCT06179576 Recruiting - Parenting Clinical Trials

Connect to Baby: A Pilot Study of a Parenting and Coparenting Program

CTB
Start date: August 1, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The proposed project is a randomized control trial to assess a novel 6-session parenting and coparenting intervention for low-income parents of infants. Connect to Baby (CTB) will be implemented within one of the largest federally-funded early care and education programs, Early Head Start (EHS), in Washington, DC. To engage both fathers and mothers, CTB recruits parents at the time of birth, capitalizing on the "magic moment" of delivery, and uses father-inclusive digital media content to engage men. A key innovation lies in the introduction and rehearsal of four interaction skills -- Noticing, Following, Talking, and Encouraging (NiFTE, pronounced "Nifty") -- to foster serve-and-return interactions with infants as well as supportive, cooperative coparenting interactions between mothers and fathers. To maximize program uptake, CTB is situated within an early education program parents already trust and attend. Additionally, the study will test hybrid program delivery with both in-person and remote sessions using video-enabled tablets to reduce scheduling and logistical barriers and thereby enhance retention. The specific aims of the project are to assess efficacy of random assignment to Hybrid delivery of CTB relative to EHS as usual at enhancing parenting and coparenting quality and parent and child wellbeing. If demonstrated to be efficacious, this program will provide Early Head Start (and other family-serving agencies) a brief cost-effective, manualized preventive intervention that could be used alone or in conjunction with other services to improve parent functioning and co-parenting, further engage fathers in programming and caregiving, and, ultimately, enhance child development.

NCT ID: NCT06171191 Recruiting - Sleep Clinical Trials

Move ARound And Get Active: an Intervention to Optimize 24-hour Movement Behaviours in Preschoolers

MARGA
Start date: July 27, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

In 2019, the World Health Organization established new guidelines for physical activity, sedentary screen time, and sleep for children under 5 years old. Unfortunately, only a few (6%) of preschoolers in Flanders, Belgium, adhere to these guidelines. The aim of this study is to test a health program developed to optimize 24-hour behaviors in preschoolers and encourage more children to follow the guidelines. The program was created using the Intervention Mapping Protocol in collaboration with parents. It consists of seven sessions for parents and preschoolers, providing strategies to encourage compliance with the guidelines. The program's effectiveness will be evaluated through a randomized controlled trial, with the intervention group attending the sessions and the control group receiving the intervention materials at the end of the study.
