Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Families will be randomly assigned to one of two conditions: in the self-study condition, families will receive information to review on their own, paired with regular (weekly) contact from a family coach; in the second condition, families will receive information to review on their own, regular contact from a coach, and will participate in video sessions with a family coach who will provide feedback on their interactions and coaching on their use of a communication technique. Data collection, management and analysis will be conducted by researchers at the University of Notre Dame, but the intervention will occur through community organizations in three cities in Indiana, allowing for tests of the effectiveness of the program when it is implemented in community settings. Families will participate in a pre-test assessment, a four-week intervention, a post-test assessment, and a one-year follow up assessment. Also evaluated will be organizational factors and factors that impact ultimate implementation and scalability of the program in community settings.

Study Groups
Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.
Parent-Child Intervention
This is a four-dose intervention that includes psychoeducational modules and communication coaching administered through community organizations over the course of four weeks. Both participating adults and the participating child receive materials to review each week, paired with weekly contact from a family coach.
Parent-child intervention
Families (two adult caregivers, child between 4 and 17) receive four interactive, asynchronous psychoeducation modules to review on their own paired with weekly contact with a communication coach and two live sessions with a communication coach to discuss psychoeducation, receive feedback on their interactions, and practice a communication technique.
Self-study intervention
This is a four-dose intervention that include written self-study materials to review, paired with weekly contact with a family coach. Both participating adults receive self-study materials; the participating child does not receive separate materials.
Self-study Intervention
Families (two adult caregivers) receive information in a newsletter format to review on their own, paired with weekly contact from a communication coach to answer questions and direct their attention toward specific topics in the newsletter.
