Literacy Promotion for Latinos Study

Status Active, not recruiting

Clinical Trial Summary

This study tests the extent to which tailored outreach text messages that provide a cue to action and an intervention that enhances access to poverty-reducing resources, in combination with standard primary care literacy promotion, can improve child language and social- emotional skill acquisition among low-income Latino children.

Clinical Trial Description

The investigators propose a 3 arm randomized clinical trial to test strategies designed to enhance literacy promotion for low-income Latino families. The investigators will recruit 630 parent-child dyads from community health centers that serve low-income, Latino families. Parents will be randomly assigned to one of 3 arms (1) Reach Out and Read (ROR) an evidence-based literacy promotion intervention that is widely disseminated in primary care; (2) ROR plus tailored outreach text messages; (3) ROR plus tailored outreach text messages and enhanced access to poverty-reducing resources using a widely disseminated model that simplifies access and provides care coordination. In Aim 1, the investigators will test their hypotheses that (1) children in the ROR plus text message arm will have higher scores on validated assessments of language and social-emotional development compared to standard ROR alone and (2) children who receive both text messages and enhanced access to poverty-reducing resources will have higher scores compared to the other two arms. In Aim 2, the investigators will examine mechanisms that underlie the effects of the interventions. In Aim 3, the investigators will use mixed methods to conduct a process evaluation to understand how the interventions are implemented, identify barriers, facilitators, and modifications, and explore parents' experiences with the interventions. ;
