Teacher Mental Health Knowledge Clinical Trial
Official title:
Implementing a School-based Mental Health Prevention Program in Ugandan Schools
Implementation of an adapted ParentCorps program in Ugandan schools will improve school mental health service resources, teachers' knowledge about child mental health, and teachers' classroom behavioral management and parent involvement skills.
Participating schools are randomly assigned to a 6-month long school-based intervention or
to a wait-list control group. The intervention focuses on improving teacher's classroom
behavioral management practices, parent engagement, and child mental health knowledge.
Teachers are assessed at the beginning and the end of the study, and again after 6 months of
intervention. Teachers' parent engagement, mental health knowledge, and behavioral practices
in the classroom are assessed through observations and teacher ratings.
